ALERTS & CONDITIONS
Be Alert
Changing Weather Conditions
Quick, unexpected changes in weather conditions could result in hikers being stranded or separated from vehicles. Always carry the ten essentials: map of the area, compass, first aid kit, flashlight with extra batteries and bulb, water and extra food, extra clothing, including rain gear, pocket knife, sunglasses and sunscreen, matches in a waterproof container, and candle or other fire starter. Always be sure to let someone at home, or a close friend, know where you are going hiking and when you plan to return home.
Please exercise caution when crossing fallen logs or damaged sections of trails. Help keep your trailheads and trails clean by packing out all your trash.
