Highwater Trek Co's Sam and Katy are back to talk trail etiquette, do's and don't's, the principles of Leave No Trace, and how to avoid being dubbed the trail nincompoop.

Have you ever wondered how not to be a dipsh*t on trail? Well set your fears of ineptitude aside and open your ears, because we did some digging, and we're here to share what we found! Join us as we talk about trail right-of-ways, advocating for your pet, proper primitive pooping, and how to be a considerate human being in the backcountry.

If in doubt, read the room! Or trail. Or campsite. Remember what Emily Post says: "Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter what fork you use".

*Please Note* you probably figured this out on your own, but when Katy excitedly announced "NUMBER FIVE" and then failed to tell you what that was before diving in--it was the Leave No Trace Principle "Minimize Campfire Impacts". Sorry about that.

DON'T FORGET! Our Spring Challenge begins April 1st. Keep your eyeballs peeled for more details to be announced soon.

As always, thank you for tuning in! We're sorry and you're welcome.
