- Tips For Visiting Here with Respect
Pay Your Fees
It may not seem like much, but your small fee helps support important monitoring, enforcement, and amenities like toilets.
Use Rubber-Tipped Poles
A rubber tip prevents your hiking pole from scratching and scarring subtle rock images on the ground.
Stay on Established Trails
Stay on existing trails and routes to protect the living biocrust. Once stepped on, this fragile crust takes years to regrow.
