A little rain, hail and sleet didn’t deter my son and his friends from having a rollicking time on our final weekend camping trip in Wyoming before school starts. The boys spent the lion's share of their time out biking and climbing despite being able to see their breath and occasionally pouring water from their shoes. We’re doing something right, we figure, and I noticed on the trip, that the United States Forest Service in Wyoming was doing something right, too.
Much to my joy, this Forest Service has done a tremendous job with Leave No Trace at our favorite hang out away from home. Leave No Trace education and signs were ubiquitous at the area, and were supplemented with clearly written local dog and fire recommendations. The multi-use area seems to have fewer Forest Service staff people on site this year, though the strong environmental ethics messages and signs are certainly doing good work to provide visitors with relevant information.
Way to go, USDA Forest Service!
