Leave No Trace
(excerpt)
a) The fundamental goal of following Leave No Trace principles
s to have your group leave an area the same or better than you
sound it. Public spaces, from National Parks to a city square, are
set aside for all to enjoy and we must each do our part to protect
them for the next person, animal and generation that comes
along
2) Denali was set aside over 100 years ago to protect wildlife,
preserve history and provide for public enjoyment. Today you will
find most of it is managed as federally protected Wilderness, a
place preserved, "in contrast with those areas where man and his
works dominate the landscape." As you travel through this unique
landscape, be inspired and free, but remember the actions of few
can impact the experience of many. Respect the plants and
animals that call Denali home, and take responsibility for their
continued protection by following the seven principles of Leave
No Trace below.
1. Plan Ahead and Prepare
[3] Denal's hazards include remote terrain, large wildlife, and
unpredictable weather, making it essential to be properly
prepared for both day trips and multi-day excursions. In addition
to safety, being prepared can prevent you from impacting an area
unintentionally.
Do your research beforehand on what to expect in Denali.
• Ensure someone knows the plan for your trip and your
return date. There is no cell phone service in most of the
