- Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2016Even as a NOLS student I still find it hard explaining Leave No Trace ethics to my camping friends because it comes off as me telling them what to do and it's just not a big deal to them. They'd rather take way too much food, tons of toilet paper and wipes, and items that produce way more trash than necessary. This book helped me pass on the knowledge to a couple of friends as a gift. I have hopes it will make a difference in their future trips and allow them to be a bit more aware of the choices they make.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2017The book provides many details of the LNT philosophy and puts them into layman terms. It is practical and important to maintain the planet in a sustainable way. Highly recommend reading this before any backcountry experience or just to up your game around home.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2015The latest views on outdoor ethics and Leave No Trace from a scientist who studies this for a career. Luckily, he's a good writer, too. If you own only one book on LNT, this should be the one. Short and concise and well-written.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2017Great guide to reducing your personal impact on the natural world.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2018I thought I knew everything about Leave No Trace, but this books had a lot of new info in it - what to do in different environments, how to Leave No Trace for different activities, etc. Easy to understand and a quick, but extremely informative read.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2014This is the most up-to-date book available on Leave No Trace practices for frontcountry and backcountry environments, and a must have for any outdoor enthusiasts, land manager or outdoor educator. From top to bottom, this book covers it all in great detail. This very readable book is perfect for those who are just learning about Leave No Trace but is just a important for the Leave No Trace experts as the new tips, research results and techniques found in this book are invaluable. From an afternoon picnic in a local park go by to a month-long wilderness expedition, if you want to enjoy the outdoors responsibly, this is the book for you.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2014This is a phenomenal book, and it is the most current and comprehensive Leave No Trace material available. The book is great for people who are new to the outdoors and new to LNT and looking for information on how to have the littlest impact on the outdoors. The book is also great for more experienced folks looking to practice some serious LNT. Finally, the book is perfect for everyone involved in LNT (practicers, Trainers, Master Educators, etc.) or anyone interested in outdoor stewardship and sane environmental practices. A must-have for outdoor enthusiasts!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2014Though I've yet to read the book "cover to cover", I've read several chapters and it's really enjoyable. The information is simple where it needs to be simple, and in depth where more explanation is needed. Plus, all the color photos really help drive home the concepts. I think this is my new go-to book for Leave No Trace minimum impact practices.

NOLSのLNTのままで、写真がカラーになっただけなのかな。
新しい部分が見当たらない。
翻訳しているので今からわかるかも。
