A key element of the Leave No Trace program is the production of publications containing information on the skills and ethics of Leave No Trace. Those publications include the Skills and Ethics booklet series, brochures, swing tags.

On this page you can also access newsletters, media releases and other Leave No Trace publications.

The Leave No Trace Skills and Ethics booklets are the most widely distributed, informative educational materials available for the Leave No Trace program. The primary purpose of the booklets is to provide the most complete, accurate and updated information on minimum impact recreation practices in a concise, easy to read format. The target audience for the booklets includes visitors and recreators, land managers, community and youth groups, and outdoor educators. Generally, the booklets target specific geographical regions or recreational uses. To ensure accuracy, booklets are reviewed by local experts and scientists with an expertise in the content of specific booklets.
