Glamp Queens

To celebrate Earth Day, we’re spending April to focus all about our impact on the environment and how we can practice the 7 principles of Leave No Trace while camping. In this episode, we dive into each step and explain useful ways of applying these to your next camping trip. Leave No Trace is a set of ethics and actions promoting conservation in the outdoors. Because a true Glamp Queens loves Mother Nature and will does what it takes to keep her safe and beautiful.

Seven Principles of Leave No Trace:

1. Plan Ahead
   
2. Travel & Camp on Durable Surfaces
   
3. Dispose Waste Properly
   
4. Leave What You Found
   
5. Minimize Campfire Impacts
   
6. Respect Wildlife
   
7. Be Considerate of Other Visitors
