All trek families are required to wear bandanas that match and correspond to each other.
Youth and family members are required to stay within their family units unless otherwise specified. There will be opportunities in the evenings to be with other fellow friends of the stake.
All participants are to remain modest in dress. No tank tops, low cut blouses. Please refer to the clothing packet at the end of this handout.
Romances between youth are not acceptable during Trek.
While on the Trail
Stay behind the priesthood leader/Trail Boss who is setting the pace.
Everyone has a hand on the handcart helping the family with the handcart.
The pace is slow so that everyone can keep up.
Stay on the trails or in approved areas.
Leaders and youth should be environmentally aware and astute. Be mindful of historic preservation and sensitive to the historical landscape.
Watch for animals and wildlife along the trail or in the campgrounds and don’t bother them.
Leave no trace, and help pick up the traces left by others. It helps to have a small garbage bag on the handcart.
No cell phones, ipods, or any other electronic devices
No horses, dogs or pets, firearms, ammunition, fireworks, ATVs, boom boxes, MP3 players on trek.
Fasting should not be incorporated as part of the treks, as the activities are physically demanding and the lack of food, under such circumstances, would be unwise.
The wearing of white clothing to represent the deceased, those behind the veil, and other such representations are not to be included as part of the treks. Please assure that all who will participate will understand this instruction.
Always leave the trail clear for others. We are a public access trail under a BLM permit in these locations.
You are responsible for your own medical issues.
Pack it In! Pack it Out! This applies to all trek groups: We have no trash facilities.
