You probably know that Leave No Trace is based on 7 Principles. Can you name them all? In the right order? Here's a little trick we use to help us memorize all seven principles in the right order. It's also a great way to teach your friends and students the seven principles as well.
Have Fun. Be Safe. Leave No Trace.
