  2. Know Before You Go The more you know, the more fun you’ll have. Learn about the areas you plan to visit. Read books, check online and talk to people before you go. Get a map and review information posted at the trailhead kiosk.

  3. Stick To Trails Shortcutting switchbacks and creating new social trails causes erosion and severe forest damage. Trails are constructed to protect natural resources and visitor safety. Staying on the trail shows respect for both.

  4. Trash Your Trash Trash is unsightly and ruins everyone's outdoor experience. Please take out all trash -- yours and others'. Your trash can kill wildlife. Even biodegradable materials may take years to break down.

  5. Pick Up Poop Phew! Dog poop stinks, is not natural, and others can step in it. Pack a pick-up bag and always pick up your dog's poop -- wherever it's left. Dog poop is a health hazard. Thanks for bagging and putting it in the trash can.

  6. Leave It As You Find It Picking flowers, collecting rocks, picking berries may not seem to be a big deal, but it means others won't have a chance to enjoy them. Taking one or two flowers and plants, even if they seem to be plentiful, is not OK.

  7. Be Careful With Fire Campfires leave scars on the land, blacken rocks and consume wood that is important to wildlife, vegetation and soil. Use a camp stove instead for cooking. If you want a campfire, be sure it’s permitted and safe to build.

  8. Keep Wildlife Wild Animals and insects are integral components of this environment. Protect wildlife by observing from a distance and never approach, feed or follow them. Human food is unhealthy, so secure your trash.

  9. Share Our Trails Other visitors are here to have enjoy the outdoors too. Be considerate when passing others on the trail. Listen to nature. Avoid making loud noises or yelling. You will see more nature when you are quiet.

  10. Manage Your Pet Keeping your dog in control keeps people, dogs, and wildlife safe. Others may not appreciate your dog's company; if you are not sure, ask before allowing your dog to approach them. Using a leash is required by law.
