MOAB, Utah - TelAve -- Hiking the vast wilderness of multicolored rock and sand surrounding Moab, Utah, is the most accessible and popular activity for visitors to the region.

Thanks to the stewardship of local agencies, associations and responsible tour operators such as the Moab Adventure Center (https://www.moabadventurecenter.com/), over 1,000 miles of diverse trails are available, most leading to unparalleled vistas, iconic arches and overlooks.

"Visitors can join guided trail hikes, hire a private guide, or strike out on their own," notes Kam Wixom, Marketing Director for Moab Adventure Center.

Hikers are urged to respect where they stand – on trails lacing through a fragile environment of cryptobiotic soil. It is the foundation for most all desert plant life.

"Off-trail footsteps can damage the crust's living organisms for many decades," Wixom underscores.

To help secure this fragile eco system, Wixom offers seven eco-friendly tips to protect the environment when exploring afoot.

1.    Avoid campfires in the wild. Instead, make your campfire in areas specifically designated for them.

2.    Plan your routes carefully, stay on established trails and let others know of your backcountry plans and destinations.

3.    Wear natural sunscreen. Some commercial sunscreen ingredients can be very damaging to the fauna and flora. Please consider sun-protective clothing and don't worry about sunscreen at all.

4.    Leave no trace. Trash is out-of-place and unsightly plus animals may mistake it for food.

5.    Choose eco-friendly gear. Choosing to purchase sustainable and eco-friendly hiking gear supports and encourages sustainability within the field. Utilizing clothing and gear made from recycled materials further reduces your environmental impact.

6.    Save on energy by using solar chargers and solar-powered items such as flashlights and lamps.

7.    Ditch the bottled water that correlates to millions of tons of single-use plastic. Instead, buy reusable water bottles that will keep everything cooler and fresher for longer periods than plastic bottles.
