Traveler advice
Getting around
Taxis, Uber, Lyft, etc. are rare in this area.
Walking/biking is also difficult throughout the down due to limited sidewalks. Plan to drive between destinations. For larger parties or nights out, contact a local transportation agency in advance to arrange travel options.
What to pack
Rain gear and comfortable all-weather shoes
The weather can be unpredictable and changes quickly. Remember to pack a rain coat or umbrella to keep with you throughout the day. In the winter, expect frequent snow showers.
