Campsite Selection:
- Locate your site at least 100 feet away from trails & water sources. Select a
site with adequate
drainage (don't dig trenches around your tent).
- In general, select a site which has already been used to eliminate further expansion of
camping impact.
- When possible, position your tent so it blends with the environment.
- Protect live trees & brush & avoid areas with delicate plants.
- Return your camp to its natural condition before you leave.
Sanitation:
- Dispose of human waste by selecting a screened spot at least 100 feet away from water
sources,
campsites, & trails. Dig a small hole 3 to 4 inches deep & fill the hole with soil
after use. Burn, bury or
pack out toilet paper.
- Wash dishes with hot, soapless water as much as possible. Dispose of "gray"
water at least 100 feet from
water sources.
- Pack out all trash, including aluminum foil & organics.
- Dispose of fish entrails by burying.
