Leave Only Footprints With These 10 Eco Camping Tips

- Let's talk about getting outside in the great outdoors. Specifically how to do it responsibly.
Eco camping ensures you leave nothing but footprints and take nothing but memories-except mosquito bites, obviously.
With the correct ethical topo map to guide you and a little planning, you can reduce environmental damage, soil erosion, water pollution, and harm to natural habitats and wildlife.
So with that in mind, let's setup our tent shall we?!

Love and support this! Thanks for sharing - this video is so informative! I'd love to hear/see more about how you can properly start a fire while camping!
Thanks so much for your kind words and happy this was helpful! The single best practice for safely building a fire out camping is by using only established pits and rock rings. You should never build your own ring or dig a pit. If there isn't one there (such as in many backcountry locations) stick to a camp stove. If there is a proper place to build a fire, I personally like using a log cabin style fire as this is the safest and most stable formation (teepee styles can collapse easily and sentdsparks and embers flying). Simply arrange your larger logs in a square, crosshatched design, 2-3 layers of logs deep. Then build a small mount of tinder (twigs, pine needles, uncoated paper if you need it) on top and ignite this. As it burns, the embers will fall down the center of the "cabin" and ignite the larger pieces of wood, as opposed to possibly getting blown away or scattered by having larger wood fed on top. Obviously add logs as needed, trying to keep the same formation, but be sure to keep it small, in control, and fed with only as much wood as you plan on staying awake to fully burn through. Never burn trash or food scraps in the fire, as this can pollute the pit or attract wild animals. And then when you do leave the site or go to bed for the evening, use water to ensure the fire is fully cool to the touch. I hope this helps!
@@sustainablejungle this 100% helps! I've never tried camping with a fire before, but I have a reservation with a campground that has a firepit (and currently no burn bans) so I'm excited to safely put these tips to use 🥰
