I was reading a recent thread and came across a link to a very old thread which I duly went and had a read of as well. I loved it so much I was inspired to copy and paste all of the pertinent information into one long list…

Bushcraft Etiquette

1. Never shine your light into someone’s camp and never shine your light into someone’s eyes.

2. 永远不要把你的光照进别人的营地，永远不要把你的光照进别人的眼睛。

3. When someone wants to enter another’s camp, they ask before approaching and when they have been asked to the fire, lanterns and flashlights should be turned off, prior to entering the camp.

2.当有人想进入别人的营地时，在接近前要问清楚，当他们被请到火堆前时，在进入营地前，灯笼和手电筒应被关闭

1. The person who starts the fire owns the fire.

起火的人拥有火

1. Never burn plastic and other rubbish in the fire, someone might want to cook over it later.

不要在火堆里烧塑料和其他垃圾，以后可能会有人想用它做饭

1. Never borrow people tools without permission

切勿未经允许借用别人的工具

1. If you are going to brew up it would be courteous to see if anyone else fancies a drink too.

如果你要酿酒，看看是否有其他人也想喝酒，这将是一种礼貌。

1. No leaving knives and axes on the grass

不要把刀子和斧子留在草地上

1. Consider where you go for the “natural stuff”, keep well away from living areas and water sources.

考虑你去哪里买 “自然的东西”，要远离生活区和水源地

1. If washing cooking gear in a standing water source, like a lake or stream, do not empty the dirty water and old food etc. back into the water.

如果在湖泊或溪流等常备水源中清洗炊具，不要将脏水和旧食物等倒入水中

1. “If you have a fire, add some ash and water to your pan.

“如果你有火，在你的锅里加一些灰和水。

Ash + water = alkali + gritty silica 灰+水=碱+砂砾硅石

alkali + fat = soap 碱 + 脂肪 = 肥皂

soap + gritty silica + slight scrub = clean pan. 肥皂+砂状硅石+轻微擦洗=干净的锅。

When you have washed the pan pour the water into the fireplace, this area has already been affected by the alkali.

当你洗完锅后，将水倒入壁炉，这个区域已经受到了碱的影响。

Rinse with water and again pour it into the fireplace.

用水冲洗后再次倒入壁炉。

On the next rinse you can pour the water away elsewhere but not into the water source.

在下一次冲洗时，你可以把水倒在其他地方，但不能倒在水源里。

1. The cook should never have to fetch firewood or water. If you have time to spare offer your services to the cook, washing up, peeling potatoes etc

厨师不应该去打柴或取水。如果你有时间，可以为厨师提供服务，如洗衣服、削土豆皮等。

1. When food is cooking on the fire do not heap on firewood without making the cook aware of what you are doing

当食物在火上烹饪时，不要在没有让厨师知道你在做什么的情况下堆放柴火。

1. If it’s your turn to cook wash your hands and clean your fingernails

如果轮到你做饭，请洗手并清洁你的手指甲。

1. If you need to clear your throat it should be done away from the general camp

如果你需要清嗓子，应该在远离一般营地的地方进行。

1. Stale clothing and body odour are as difficult to stand in the bush as anywhere else. Your bush skills are poorly developed if you do not know how to return to civilisation as clean as you left it

在丛林中，陈旧的衣服和身体的气味和其他地方一样难以忍受。如果你不知道如何像离开时一样干净地回到文明社会，你的丛林技能就没有得到很好的发展。

1. Do not step over food

不要踩在食物上

1. Do not put rubbish into the fire whilst food is cooking or people are eating

当食物正在烹煮或人们正在吃饭时，不要将垃圾放入火中。

1. Do not leave dirty (or clean) dishes under foot. if washing your own dishes is camp custom take care of this chore immediately, generally it is excusable to do away with most eating utensils and even to eat with the fingers, however do not handle someone else’s food with your hands

不要把脏的（或干净的）盘子放在脚下。如果自己洗盘子是营地的习惯，要立即处理这项工作，一般来说，不使用大多数食具，甚至用手指吃饭也是可以的，但是不要用手处理别人的食物。

1. pay particular attention to the corners of your eyes and mouth when washing, after eating ensure there is no food on your face

清洗时要特别注意眼角和嘴角，吃完后要确保脸上没有食物。

1. Do not ask to borrow someone’s private knife, axe or saw. If a job needs doing and you do not have the required tool, ask the owner to do it for you.

不要要求借用别人的私人刀具、斧头或锯子。如果有工作需要做，而你没有所需的工具，请主人为你做。

1. when on the trail if the branches from the person in front are slapping you in the face, it’s your own fault, don’t follow so closely

在山路上，如果前面的人的树枝打在你的脸上，那是你自己的错，不要跟得那么紧

1. when visitors happen upon your camp, it is the custom to at least offer tea

当游客遇到你的营地时，习惯上至少要提供茶水

1. if you are a loud snorer, or prone to considerable flatulence you should have the good manners to set up your own camp an appropriate distance away

如果你是一个响亮的打鼾者，或容易产生大量的胀气，你应该有良好的礼仪，在适当的距离外建立自己的营地

1. cleanliness and neatness of persons are desirable quirks

干净和整洁的人是可取的怪癖

1. good manners dictate that all vulgarity, mishaps, blunders and accidents on the part of others be let off without comment with a philosophical indifference

良好的礼仪决定了对他人的所有粗俗、不幸、失误和意外都应以一种哲学上的漠不关心的态度不加评论地放过。

1. If you have children, try to keep them under some semblance of control.

如果你有孩子，尽量让他们处于某种程度的控制之下。

1. If you do use a flashlight (torch) at a campfire at least aim the beam to the ground out of everybody’s eyes, turn it off at the first occasion. Bring along a bag of marshmallows for all to use.

如果你在篝火晚会上使用手电筒，至少要把光束对准地面，避开大家的眼睛，一有机会就把它关掉。带上一袋棉花糖供大家使用。

1. Don’t untie someone’s hammock when they’re sleeping, no matter how funny it seems.

不要在别人睡觉的时候解开他们的吊床，不管这看起来多么有趣。

1. A small torch or a candle lantern is all that is really needed to navigate bad terrain in the dark.

一个小手电筒或一个蜡烛灯就是在黑暗中浏览恶劣地形的全部需要。

If you have a searchlight or a super bright gas lantern is it really needed to get yourself to the campfire?

如果你有一个探照灯或一个超亮的煤气灯，真的需要它来把自己送到篝火旁吗？

I would say though that olive green or black guy lines stretched out across a pathway do need either flags or marker lights if you do not expect someone to demolish your camp in the dark.

不过我想说的是，如果你不指望有人在黑暗中拆毁你的营地，那么橄榄绿或黑色的家伙线在小路上延伸开来，确实需要旗帜或标记灯。

1. Don’t drive goats into the other team’s camp when out on a competition

外出比赛时，不要把山羊赶到对方的营地。

1. It’s better to use the established fire circle and leave it tidy for the next party.

最好使用已建立的火圈，并为下一次聚会留下整洁的地方。

Of course, if you’re making a fresh one you should clean it up.当然，如果你在做一个新的，你应该把它清理干净。

1. In any situation, anyone should feel able to calmly and politely express concern at the unsafe behaviour of others, if you see someone swinging an axe in a way that is going to injure them or a kid taking a canoe out on the water alone and with no PFD you should say something…Don’t make someone uncomfortable about looking out for your safety.

在任何情况下，任何人都应该感到能够平静而有礼貌地对他人的不安全行为表示关切，如果你看到有人以一种会受伤的方式挥舞斧头，或者一个孩子独自带着独木舟出海，而且没有佩戴PFD，你应该说些什么…不要让别人为你的安全着想而感到不舒服

1. If you want to wash yourself or your kit then collect enough water and take it somewhere that others won’t have to walk through after you’ve finished

如果你想清洗你自己或你的装备，那么请收集足够的水，并把它带到一个别人在你完成后不会走过的地方。

1. People playing loud music either recorded or live, especially drum’n’bass through a ghetto blaster is a big no no

大声播放音乐的人，无论是录音还是现场，尤其是通过贫民窟鼓风机播放的鼓贝斯，都是大忌。

1. Enjoy the outdoors and respect your surroundings.

享受户外活动，尊重你周围的环境。

1. Have fun!

玩得开心点!
