Take your passion for Leave No Trace to the next level by becoming a certified Leave No Trace Master Educator. This course is designed for people who lead groups, teach outdoor skills or provide recreation information to the public. It emphasizes low-impact travel and camping skills, wildland ethics, and outdoor teaching techniques.

On this Bikepacking specific Leave No Trace course you’ll explore the Owyhee Canyonlands surrounding the North Fork Wilderness area in southwestern Idaho. A small group of students will join an experienced team of bikepacking instructors from NOLS and the Owyhee BLM field office for 5 days of learning in a spectacular natural environment. On the LNT Master Educator course, you will practice teaching the Leave No Trace principles to your group and applying Leave No Trace techniques while traveling and camping. These courses are informative, practical, hands-on and fun. You will learn skills and teaching techniques through lectures, skits and discussions in a spectacular outdoor setting.

As a graduate of a Leave No Trace Master Educator course, you will be prepared to share your passion for the outdoors and knowledge of Leave No Trace with others in 2 day Leave No Trace Trainer courses and 1 day or shorter Leave No Trace Awareness Workshops.
