| 説明 | Planning to hike or run R2R (rim-to-rim) during October? You’re not alone. Thousands of people each weekend are on the corridor trails in Grand Canyon. Here are some tips to make it an awesome experience for you and your fellow trail users and to minimize the impact to the park's natural resources: · Empower yourself with knowledge! Research your plan and carry a map on the trail. Then you’ll never have to guess how far to the next toilet, water source, or emergency phone! > www.nps.gov/grca/planyourvisit/upload/intro-bc-hike.pdf· Carry a trowel, plastic bags for toilet paper, or a wag bag if you think you might not be able to make it to a toilet in time while in the canyon. It is a biohazard for other hikers and employees to encounter feces or used toilet paper left on the trail. Read about Leave No Trace principle #3 if you’re not sure of how to handle #2 in the backcountry. Principle 3: Dispose of Waste Properly - Leave No Trace Center (lnt.org) >lnt.org/why/7-principles/dispose-of-waste-properly/· Pack wisely and pack out what you pack in. If you get hot or no longer want to carry an item of clothing, leaving it on the trail is not an option. Employees collect and carry these out themselves when you leave. It’s heavy!· When using the composting toilets, only deposit biodegradable and composting items into the toilets. Members of the compost crew hike R2R2R weekly to clean and maintain the toilets, and must pick plastic bags, wrappers, diapers, and non-biodegradable items out of the compost toilet. This makes their job more dangerous. · Search and Rescue teams are very busy! Take care of yourself and your teammates. Eat plenty, stay cool, and never leave your friends alone on the trail. - A little Trail Courtesy goes a long way > go.nps.gov/courtesy (376)NPS photo/N.
