replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks A10) #Parkchat That's just it, planning, if going with others you've never traveled with, try going on an easy outing first, it's all fun and games 'till someone starts to stress out. Communication is Key. Plan to stay hydrated.

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks A10. Don't be too proud to use modern tech, it really helps. A scout on Google satellite can do wonders. A Garmin handheld gps is great, too! Call a ranger or forest service/fire Dept and talk over your plan. Lastly, expect the unexpected and bring extra everything! #ParkChat
