If we all do our part, we can protect area wildlife and their habitat; keeping nearby streams, rivers, lakes and forests beautiful for all to enjoy!
- Pack it in, pack it out. Or pick it up to leave a place better than you found it. Take litter, even crumbs, peels and cores with you, until you can dispose of them in the proper waste/recycling bins.
- Bring along reusable water bottles or hot drink tumblers to limit waste and stay hydrated in our dry climate.
- If you have to poo, walk at least 70 steps from trails, water and people. Dig a cat hole 6 inches deep, do your thing in the hole, cover it and pack out your TP. Or, use a wag bag (a disposable bag found in most outdoor stores) so you can pack out your waste. This goes for your furry friends as well-please pack out their waste.
