Be Prepared For Bad Weather
In addition, in your fanny pack or nap sack you should stick a small flashlight and a poncho or trash bag that you can use as a poncho. Even the nicest weather can change quickly, and nothing will make you more miserable than trudging back to your car, soaking wet. The flashlight is one of those things that you will hopefully never need, but if an emergency arises, or you get lost, you will certainly be glad to have it.
Leave a Note
You can locate trail maps from the park service office, scout them carefully before deciding on a trail. Do not overestimate your fitness level, or the length of time it will take you to hike the trail. It is better, particularly in the beginning, to be conservative. Once you have decided on a trail, write down the name of the trail and the time you start your hike and leave it on the dashboard of your car. If something should happen to your group, this will make the park ranger’s job much easier.
