Tips to Stay Safe<br />
Watch the weather<br />
Check the weather before you head out. There is a<br />
heat warning in effect April to October. Hike in the<br />
early morning or evening when it's cooler.<br />
Dress appropriately<br />
Wear hiking or athletic shoes, a hat and sunscreen.<br />
Loose fitting clothing may get stuck or caught on<br />
desert vegetation.<br />
Bring water<br />
Hydrate before you leave. Bring plenty of water<br />
with you. Turn around and head back before your<br />
water is halfway gone.<br />
Keep in contact<br />
Carry a cell phone and tell someone where you are<br />
going and when you expect to return.<br />
Be a courteous and cautious pet owner<br />
Dogs must be kept on a leash. Please clean up after<br />
them. Be mindful of the heat.<br />
Don’t trailblaze<br />
Stay on the designated paths and trails. Respect<br />
the desert plant life. Do not pick wildflowers.<br />
Respect the wildlife<br />
Never approach or feed wildlife. Observe quietly<br />
from a distance.
