Leave No Trace
Not a BSA program, but a program the BSA uses. Educational, not regulatory.
There are seven principles which are reworded as the "leave no trace principles for kids" below in parentheses.
- Plan ahead and prepare (Know before you go) 2. Travel and camp on durable surfaces (Choose the right path)
- Dispose of waste properly (Trash your trash)
- Leave what you find
- Minimize campfire impacts (Be careful with fire)
- Respect wildlife
- Be considerate of others (Be kind to other visitors)
