Part 5/8:
Campfires can be harmful to the environment. Use established fire pits, keep your fire small, and always extinguish fires completely. Avoid starting fires under tree canopies, and opt for dead wood over live trees for fuel.
6. Respect Wildlife
Understand that you're sharing the environment with wildlife. Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and do not feed or disturb them or their habitats.
7. Be Respectful of Other Visitors
Camping is often a communal activity, so be mindful of noise levels and privacy. Ensure that your camping practices do not encroach on the enjoyment of fellow campers.
