Traveler advice
Getting around
Personal Car or Rental Car
You will need to have the availability to travel distances and at times on dirt roads.
What to pack
Clothes for both hot and cold. Plenty of water.
The winters can be very cold and even snow at times. The summers can be scorching hot, but still have a chill in the evening. Be prepared for both. Always bring more water than you think you need when hiking in the National Park.
