Everyone makes mistakes, but there are some things we can"t tolerate. Committing these sins means that you may create too much risk for the activity and therefore may not be able to go.
Cardinal sins include:
Unless specifically told to by a teacher, groups must remain together
When you are on a route without staff, you must negotiate any changes to the route you have decied or have been given.
Radios are the reason we can do this activity. If you use them irresponsibly, you may not be able to go.
Fires can only be lit
- if there is no fire ban
- in areas cleared 1m to any grass or tree from fire
- for cooking: no flames higher than half a metre are necessary
You must not place items that may explode into a fire, and fires must be completely out (no smoke) before leaving them.
"Leave only footprints" is a good guideline. Take your rubbish with you. If a site has been left messy by a previous camper: clean it up and take that rubbish out as well.
