Keys to Responsible Mountaineer

Basically, responsible hiking ensures future outdoor enthusiasts the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors as you have. Here are some keys for having a good time at the right way.

• Take only pictures leave only footprints and kill only time. If you carry it in, carry it out. This will eliminate litter.
• Protect water sources from contamination. Use bio-degradable soap, or try hot water soap-less dishwashing, bathing and clothes washing. When using soap and toothpaste, dispose it at least 100 feet away from natural water sources or faucet water sources.
• Be a good neighbor, control your noise. Always remember that you are just a visitor in the place.
• Be respectful in the natural environment, keep the trees and shrubs alive and growing. Nails and wires should not be used on trees because they can cause serious damage to trees.
• Designate trails. This keeps damage to vegetation and erosion in one place.
• Before leaving your campsite, clean your fire pit and your campsite. Make it as clean as you would want it if you were arriving that day. The next user will appreciate it. Respect the environment and the rights of others leave it better than you found it and discover the rewards of responsible climber.
