Join the Rucksack Revolution!



Did you know that every year in Patagonia, over half a million fuel canisters per season end up as landfill?


Erratic Rock, a Guide Service & Outfitter Partner of Leave No Trace, is on a mission to not only bring awareness to this fact, but to do something about it. Their new campaign, along with the help of partners like the American Alpine Club, MSR, Outdoor Research and Leave No Trace, is launching this season to facilitate the ease of recycling fuel canisters. The result: climbers and other adventurers to these beautiful Patagonian areas are part of the solution to keeping Patagonia pristine.

Leave No Trace, as an education program that focuses on what people can do to minimize their impact in the outdoors, is proud to work with Erratic Rock and support their efforts to educate and empower individuals to these areas to be responsible stewards and leaders in the climbing community.
