Leave No Trace Hike with Kingsburg Coastal Conservancy

July 20, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 11:30 am

Meet at Riverport Community Centre Parking Lot at 9:00am, carpool to Feltzen South for the hike.
Please wear appropriate outdoor clothing including footwear appropriate for hiking.


Join with KCC members and Jody Conrad, a founding member of Leave No Trace Canada and the first Leave No
Trace Master Educator in Canada, as we learn and discuss the seven principles of Leave No Trace while enjoying
a local trail.


“As more and more of us seek out natural areas for recreation and solitude, each of us adopting a corresponding
personal wilderness ethic becomes more and more important in order to protect the areas that we all love. The
seven principles of Leave No Trace provide a framework of practices and techniques that encourage minimal
impact on nature for anyone venturing into the outdoors. Each of the principles, which are widely recognized in
Canada and internationally, covers a specific topic and offers detailed information on how to minimize both our
ecological and social impacts in the outdoors. Originally developed for the back country, the seven Leave No Trace
principles can be applied to remote wilderness areas, local parks, and urban backyards. In fact, they are suited for
almost any outdoor recreational activity.”
