Land closures happen when things go wrong out there. This free guide covers the 7 Principles of Leave No Trace adapted for overlanding, so the spots you love stay accessible for you and everyone who comes after.
Overlanding puts you in some of the most remote, least-protected land in the country. That access is a privilege, and it’s increasingly under threat.
Off-road vehicles compact soil and destroy vegetation, which can take decades to recover from. Improper campsite selection widens impact zones and creates erosion that scars landscapes long after you’ve moved on. Waste left behind, even “biodegradable” waste, contaminates water sources and disrupts wildlife behavior. Campfires built in the wrong spots start wildfires. And when enough people do these things in the same places, land managers close them.
None of that happens because overlanders don’t care. It happens because nobody taught them what to look for.
That’s what this guide is for.
The 7 Principles of Leave No Trace, adapted for overlanding, give you the practical knowledge to travel farther and camp longer, so the places worth going stay that way.
