Take a class in orienteering through several organizations. Call your local state park for more information. Pack up all trash and leave the camp site as it was found. Leave only footprints behind. Respect the trails and other trail users.
Pedestrians always have right of way.
All trail users should travel on the right and pass on the left. Give an audible warning if passing others along the trail. Do not panic. Blow your whistle or shout to help searchers locate you. Look around you in the immediate area for a clearing.
