4 The Seven Principles of Leave No Trace

5 The Seven Principles of Leave No Trace How many here are familiar with the Leave No Trace Program? How many are using the Principles of Leave No Trace in their unit? Can you name any of the Principles of Leave No Trace? Distribute copies of The Principles of Leave No Trace pamphlet and briefly review each principle. 3A

6 1. Plan Ahead and Prepare 4

7 1. Plan Ahead and Prepare Proper planning insures: Low risk adventures Properly located campsites Appropriate campfires and minimal trash (e.g. repackaging food to limit trash) Comfortable and fun camping and hiking experiences 4A

8 2. Travel and Camp on Durable Surfaces 5

9 2. Travel and Camp on Durable Surfaces High Use Areas: Concentrate activities Use existing trails and designated campsites Keep campsites small Remote, Less Traveled Areas: Spread out Take different paths Disperse tents and cooking activities Choose the most durable surfaces - rock, gravel, dry grasses or snow 5A

10 3. Dispose of Waste Properly 6

11 3. Dispose of Waste Properly Trash - Pack it in - Pack it out Wastewater - Strain and dispose of wastewater at least 200 feet from water sources. Use biodegradable soap. Human Waste if allowed, dig a cat hole 6 to 8 inches deep, at least 200 feet from water sources, trails and campsites. (Know before you go Planning) 6A

12 4. Leave What You Found 7

13 4. Leave What You Found Look and enjoy what you see Do not alter sites by building or digging Replace what you clear from a campsite Cleanup high impact campsites Good campsites are found - Not made 7A

14 5. Minimize Campfire Impacts 8

15 5. Minimize Campfire Impacts Use lightweight stoves Use existing fire rings in a well placed campsite Leave No Trace fires are small and burnt down to ashes LNT fires do not leave scorched rock or dead earth Be certain all wood and campfire debris is dead out 8A

16 6. Respect Wildlife 9

17 6. Respect Wildlife Observe wildlife from afar Give animals a wide berth Store food securely and out of reach Never feed the wildlife 9A

18 7. Be Considerate of Other Visitors 10

19 7. Be Considerate of Other Visitors Travel and camp in small groups Let nature s sounds prevail Select campsites away from other groups Always travel and camp quietly Use clothing and gear colors that blend in with the environment Respect private property and leave gates as found 10A

20 The Outdoor Experience 11

21 The Outdoor Experience During the pre-opening activity, you shared information with each other about the gear and clothing you will take with you for the upcoming Outdoor Experience. Later in this meeting, the patrol will discuss group gear, menus and cooking methods. Can you explain how your choices of equipment, clothing and menus are effected by Leave No Trace principles? 11A

22 12

23 Scenario 1: Alpine Setting Different outdoor settings or activities require different ways of thinking about Leave No Trace. Hand out copies of the Alpine setting. The picture in front of you is an Alpine Setting. This is just one type of environment that you could be camping in. You can tell from the number of fire rings, log benches and numerous trails that others have camped here often. Where should you camp? (Camp in the well-used areas near the fire rings and avoid the surrounding area that shows little or no impact.) 12A

24 How can we insure the use of Leave No Trace principles in our home unit, district and council? 13

25 How can we insure the use of Leave No Trace principles in our home unit, district and council? Ask for some ideas, then offer the following: Challenge Scouts and Scouters to earn the LNT Awareness Award. Invite representatives of land management agencies to share LNT presentations at Scout meetings. Remind Scouts that the LNT principles are prominently listed in the Boy Scout handbook Offer Scout units no other alternative. If LNT principles are the guidelines by which Cub packs, Scout troops and Venturing crews always operate, that way of thinking will become second nature. 13A

26 Mission Statement of the Leave No Trace Program The mission of the Leave No Trace program is to develop a nationally recognized minimum-impact backcountry educational system which educates wildland user groups, federal agencies and the public through training and effective written and video materials. 14
