Hot Conditions
Limit strenuous hiking to early morning and late evening hours. Drink plenty of water and carry extra. Know the signs and symptoms of heat related illnesses. In case of a heat related emergency get to a cool place and seek help immediately.
High Crowds & Park Capacity
High visitation may require limiting access to Bear Gulch and other parking areas in the park. If all parking lots reach capacity, incoming traffic will not pass the campground until space is available. This occurs most often between 8a and 3p on weekends
Seasonal Closures In Effect
Seasonal closures are in effect to protect nesting birds of prey on cliffs and rock formations in the park. Please refer to closure lists in park brochures and on the raptor advisory page for more information.
