Leave No Trace

Community Spotlight: Fannin County Chamber of Commerce and CVB (Georgia's Blue Ridge) In 2020, this Georgia community partner faced a surge in visitors due to COVID-19, leading to overuse and damage to trails and outdoor areas. In response, they spread the Leave No Trace message through billboards, ads, websites, and publications, reaching millions with the call to pack out what you pack in and preserve these beautiful spaces. Local high schoolers also joined the effort by growing milkweed to promote native pollinator gardens.

Everyone learns about Leave No Trace in different ways, whether from friends and family, at camp as a kid or through a university outdoors club. In North Carolina, guides and outfitters are vital educators, helping all their guests learn about Leave No Trace and put it into action on their trips and beyond. Last year, our Subaru/Leave No Trace Traveling Team, Elena & Jesse, teamed up with @outdoornc to host a Level 1 Course for North Carolina guides so that they could be ambassadors for responsible recreation in the state. These guides have been trained in tactics that allow them to effectively communicate the seven Outdoor NC #LeaveNoTrace principles within a wide variety of outdoor experiences. These guides are leaders in stewardship while helping their clients spend time enjoying the outdoors and protecting it. Where did you first learn about Leave No Trace?
