Rap 701 - Happy Trails

In preparation for leaving

• Pack up all your trash/recyclables and take it away. Take it far away. Do not impact the small towns near the gathering.
• Dismantle and disappear your encampment. Pick up your litter. If you don't someone else will have to. Vanish ALL traces.
• Fill in your local latrine and compost holes solidly with lime and soil. Remove string and twine from tree limbs. Break up hardened ground with shovels or picks for future root growth and moisture catch. Intermix humus from forest ground if possible.
• NATURALIZE! When an area is clear and clean scatter logs, branches, leaves to look natural. Disappear trails, renew forest habitat. Water systems are removed, cleaned and stored for next year.
• Help with disabled vehicles, fully dismantle ramps and bridges. Water bar steep places to prevent erosion. The final crew re-seeds with appropriate vegetation to complete the process.
• Transport as many riders as possible out of the area. Treat local folks with great kindness.
• Drive safely and share this love wherever you go.
