    Unfortunately the term 'Leave No Trace' gets confused with 'Self Contained'. If the principles outlined in the following web site were adapted by everyone (ie. all campers) discussions like this would probably be unnecessary. http://lnt.org.au/

    However as another friend wrote recently "We Need to change what people do (behaviour). Changing what people think (attitude) is harder and doesn't necessarily produce the desired behaviour change".

    Which brings us back to the issue of 'policing' & the need for every single one of us to take the responsibility to encourage our fellow campers to do the right thing if we see them stuffing things up for us......politely! There will always be the few who cannot be reasoned with & who don,t care, but the majority will modify their behaviour if they think there is a chance they are being observed.
