Leave No Trace
Req #2 - Second Class
As Scouts we must always take care of our natural resources. One simple rule that I have for my Boy Scouts is that we make our campsite cleaner and better than we found it. Doing this will preserve the natural beauty of where we camp. Raise your hand if you want to camp in a spot that is full of trash and where people have not properly burried their human waste... not I! Use these simple bullet points as reminders of how to Leave No Trace in the wilderness.
