Official manual of the American Hiking Society on the ethics and commonsense practices of backcountry human impact. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I teach Leave No Trace skills and awareness of outdoor ethics to Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and Scout leaders. The Boy Scouts of America has adopted the principles of Leave No Trace, which is very important for us to practice. As members of the Boy Scouts of America, we should be good stewards of our environment through training and practical application. This book can serve as a valuable resource for Scouts and all citizens concerned about our environment. We all must take responsibility for our decisions when we use the outdoors, and we should treat the environment with respect so future generations can enjoy the outdoors as we do today.
A nice pocket sized guide for beginners.

This little book could be handy for anyone new to the LNT concepts. It gives a good bit of information on techniques and then gives additional information on specific forms of recreation. Little information here will be new to die hard campers (unless they are die hard tailgate campers) but I'll find it extremely usefull in giving instruction to others on LNT concepts. This would make a great stocking stuffer for a Scouter or nice addition to a backpacker's library.
