Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics
A fortuitous encounter with “Mr. Bigfoot” is motivating us to practice Leave No Trace sasquatch-style.
How? The furry guy has asked us to challenge this community to live up to his standards as an environmental activist. By showing your support for Leave No Trace you have the chance to show Bigfoot you’re up to the test....... He’s been doing it for years, and so can you!
Per Bigfoot’s request, we are offering a creative way for you to support Leave No Trace. By donating $15 you will receive some gifts to help warm up the holidays: a limited-edition Bigfoot pint glass (for your favorite holiday beverage) and a warm, cozy hat!
