Outdoor Code
As an American, I will do my best to
Be clean in my outdoor manners.
I will treat the outdoors as a heritage. I will take care of itfor myself and others. I will
keep my trash and garbage out of lakes, streams, fields, woods, and roadways.
Be careful with fire.
I will prevent wildfire. I will build my fires only when and where they are appropriate. When
I have finished using a fire, I will make sure it is cold out. I will leave a clean fire ring,
or remove all evidence of my fire.
Be considerate in the outdoors.
I will treat public and private property with respect. I will follow the principles of Leave
No Trace for all outdoor activities.
Be conservation-minded.
I will learn about and practice good conservation of soil, waters, forests, minerals,
grasslands, wildlife, and energy. I will urge others to do the same.
