Always wear safety glasses when using tools to protect your eyes from flying debris. Bring plenty of water, tell someone where you're going and when you expect to return, and be aware of weather conditions. Respect private property boundaries, follow Leave No Trace principles, and be cautious of wildlife. In remote areas, consider bringing a communication device.
