It's the only one we have!
As an American I will do my best to:
-
Be clean in my outdoor manners.
-
I will treat the outdoors as a heritage.
-
I will take care of it
for myself and others.
-
I
will keep my trash and garbage out of lakes, streams, fields, woods, and roadways.
-
Be careful with fire, I will prevent wildfire. I will build my fires only where they are appropriate. When I have finished using a fire, I will make sure it is cold-out. I will leave a clean fire ring, or remove all evidence of my fire.
-
Be considerate in the outdoors, I will treat public and private property with respect. I will use low-impact methods of hiking and camping.
-
Be conservation-minded. I will learn how to practice good conservation of soil, waters, forests, minerals, grasslands, wildlife, and energy.
-
I will urge others to do the same.
