Something we've been looking forward to all summer starts September 14.

Seven days. Seven Leave No Trace principles. Seven chances to win Mountain Hardwear gear — or grab the Golden Ticket and enter all seven drawings at once. Drawings close September 20.

Picking up trash that isn't yours feels small in the moment. It's not. Every piece you grab is one less thing in the water, one less thing an animal finds first. Stewardship isn't a special event, it's what you do on a normal Tuesday hike.

Big congrats to Sean Underhill, our Arizona State Advocate, on winning the 2026 Governor's Tourism Award for Stewardship Excellence in the North Central region.

Sean was recognized for his work linking local trail systems to health, equity, and youth initiatives across the region — the kind of on-the-ground advocacy that shows what Leave No Trace looks like in practice.

We're proud to have him representing Arizona.

What an incredible few days in the Blue Hills!

Blue Hills Reservation was honored to be selected as a Leave No Trace Spotlight location. From our Leave No Trace workshop and pop-up education, to a concert where LNT joined us and a hands-on stewardship event, it was a great weekend of learning, connecting, and giving back.

The Spotlight weekend was a great opportunity to highlight how each of us can help protect the Blue Hills, whether we’re spending time on the trails, learning something new, helping with stewardship, or simply being thoughtful about our impact. Small actions add up.

A huge thank you to Leave No Trace, DCR, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, Quincy Arts Council, and especially our board, staff, volunteers, and members who made this weekend possible. We’re proud to care for this special place together.

What's left behind doesn't stay behind. Wind moves it, rain moves it, wildlife eats what they shouldn't. That wrapper you meant to grab on the way back? Grab it now. Pack out everything you packed in, including food scraps.

Stewardship doesn’t have to start with something big.

Pick up one piece of trash. Leave a trail a little better than you found it. Take one small action to care for the places we all share.

One piece. One small action. Multiplied by all of us.

It adds up. 🌎
