Important Note:
One of the focal points of this trip is on the “footprint” we leave.
We want to minimize wrappers, papers, bags, etc. (Think Tuesday Lunch, desposbable waterbottles, snacks)
Our goal - if we “Pack It In,” we will “Pack It Out.”
As such, we encourage you to re-package food before the trip and to bring only re-usable items.
