🌲 The Roots of Respect Why “Leave No Trace” Isn’t Just a Rule—It’s a Mindset

From the towering pines of the Rockies to the rolling fog of the Appalachians, one rule unites hikers across the U.S.: respect the land. “Leave No Trace” isn't just about picking up snack wrappers—it’s about honoring every trail, bird call, and blooming wildflower. More hikers than ever are stepping up: planning ahead, sticking to the path, and treading lightly. Because the wild doesn’t need us to conquer it—it needs us to protect it. Let’s hike like someone’s coming after us. Because they are. 🌍👣 #Sport #Hiking #TrailCam #Nature #Environment
