Event Details
Chatfield State Park was nominated as a Leave No Trace Hotspot in 2019. Part of our goals moving forward are to elevate the awareness of our community members about the need for outdoor ethics whether we're biking, birding, or engaging in any outdoor activity. The Seven Principles of Leave No Trace provide an easily understood framework of minimum impact practices for anyone visiting the outdoors. Although Leave No Trace has its roots in backcountry settings, the Principles have been adapted so that they can be applied anywhere — from remote wilderness areas, to local parks and even in your own backyard. They also apply to almost every recreational activity. Each Principle covers a specific topic and provides detailed information for minimizing impacts. Leave this free workshop feeling inspired to share the message of the 7 principles!
Instructors: Certified Leave No Trace Trainers Mike Thomas (Naturalist for Roxborough State Park), Jim O'Brien (Naturalist for Roxborough State Park), and Mariane Erickson (Denver Audubon Community Naturalist).
Location: Audubon Center at Chatfield, 11280 Waterton Rd., Littleton CO 80125
