Do you love being in the backcountry but don’t know if you’re “doing it right?” Mountain Manners Courses are based in the Leave No TraceTM tenets and give you the low-down on low-environmental impact travel through wild, fragile places. Hikers, bikers, backpackers and car campers - come get smart about bringing the right gear; trail etiquette; choosing the best lunch and camp sites; making a low impact fire; preserving flora and fauna; “toilet” practices; dealing with trash; preserving water quality and more. Reference materials and fun SWAG provided at all classes! “Down & Dirty Locals’ Mountain Manners” is offered early in the season for locals to learn how to treat our “crib” right! The entire course takes place outdoors!
