Safety and Outdoor Ethics
The Sawtooth National Forest offers great outdoor experiences that can turn not-so-great if you don't properly plan and prepare. We encourage visitors to practice Leave No Trace Principles.
Enjoy the Outdoors
Following a few best practices will go a long way toward an enjoyable Forest experience
Stay Safe
Preparing for potential threats on the Forest can determine whether nature if a friend or a foe.
Respect Wildlife
Minimizing human-wildlife conflict maximizes species populations, providing more opportunities for wildlife viewing
Leave No Trace
Leaving the natural world as we found it affords others the same privilege of experiencing it as we have.
