As an American, I will do my best to -
- Be clean in my outdoor manners.
I will treat the
outdoors as a heritage.
I will take care of it for myself and others
I
will keep my trash and garbage out of lakes, streams, fields, woods, and
roadways.
- Be careful with fire.
I will prevent
wildfire.
I will build my fires only where they are appropriate.
When I
have finished using a fire, I will make sure it is cold out.
I will leave a
clean fire ring, or remove all evidence of my fire.
- Be considerate in the outdoors.
I will treat public and
private property with respect.
I will use low-impact methods of hiking and
camping.
and
- Be conservation minded
I will learn how to practice good
conservation of soil, waters, forests, minerals, grasslands, wildlife, and
energy.
I will urge others to do the same.
