Wildlife & Tread Lightly
A locked rear diff and 35″ tires mean you could push through a wet meadow or crowd wildlife for a photo. That’s exactly the point where capability and judgment need to disagree with each other — and it connects directly to why UBC exists. Our bylaws describe our purpose in plain terms: trail stewardship and public-land education. This page isn’t an add-on to the club; it’s close to the actual reason UBC is a nonprofit.
Wildlife
- Slow down when you see animals near or on the trail. Never chase, honk at, or crowd them for a photo.
- Keep pets under control around wildlife, livestock, and open gates.
Fire
- Follow posted fire restrictions exactly — when it says no fires, it means no fires.
- Use existing fire rings, and make sure fires are cold to the touch before you leave or sleep.
Camping
- Keep camp and parking fully on durable surfaces — rock, gravel, hardened dirt — not meadows, wetlands, or cryptobiotic soil.
- Disperse-camp only where it’s legal, and know the rules for the area you’re in.
Trash & Giving Back
- Pack out all trash, down to the small stuff, and grab a bit extra when you safely can.
- Watch for UBC stewardship days — organized time specifically to give back to the trails we run, not just use them.
