Leave No Trace ethics is a way of living, and a way of interacting with our environment in order to sustain it for future generations. We let the following seven principles guide our activities:

Plan Ahead and Prepare

Travel and Camp on Durable Surfaces

Minimize Campfire Impacts

Be Considerate of Other Visitors

Dispose of Waste Properly

Leave What You Find

Respect Wildlife

As the Virginia Leave No Trace State Advocate, I can provide materials to support any Leave No Trace programs you offer or share a request for a LNT Workshop or program with the Trainers and Master Educators located in Virginia.

A special thanks to all of our LNT volunteers who continue to provide outstanding programs! You can find them all over Virginia.
