Q10: How do you follow Leave No Trace principles when sharing trail magic? #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker A10: Think multi-use here. If the container is something the can help later then it will be held onto longer. @TheSoCalHiker #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker @TheSoCalHiker A10. Make sure you pick up after yourself & never leave food behind in a shelter. #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker @TheSoCalHiker a10- not sure about this "trail magic", cleaning up after yourself out there is just what one is supposed to do #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker @TheSoCalHiker A10: ALWAYS always always pack out the trash @TETONsports #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker @TheSoCalHiker A10. reusing anything reusable. packing out what isn't #hikerchat

#hikerchat A10: I explain to new people WHY tossing biodegradable food leftovers is still littering. Once explained, they're usually better

replying to @TheSoCalHiker @TheSoCalHiker A10 #hikerchat That's controversial: leaving goodies along trailsometimes becomes trash, especially if litterbugs or animals

A10: Pack food in ziplocks, and then use those ziplocks as trash. No excess! And always do a sweep of the campsite before leaving #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker @TheSoCalHiker A10 Don't leave litter behind & minimize your impact #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker A10: @TheSoCalHiker I strive to do better than LNT. I try to come off the trail with trash I found on the way #hikerchat

A10: Share trail magic in person versus leaving it somewhere, and then come back later that day to pick up any trash #hikerchat
