The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate Frequently
Desert air can quickly dehydrate you; carry and drink at least 2 liters of water daily to maintain energy and focus.
Wear Layers
Temperatures can swing dramatically between desert days and canyon mornings—layered clothing ensures comfort throughout.
Comfortable Footwear
Expect uneven terrain in national parks—sturdy, broken-in hiking shoes will protect your feet and improve stability.
Plan for Altitude
Some stops, like Bryce Canyon, reach elevations over 8,000 feet; allow time to acclimate and avoid overexertion.
