Adventure Tips
Dress in layered outdoor gear
Weather in mountain elevations can change rapidly; layers help you stay comfortable throughout the day.
Book in advance due to limited spots
Heli hikes are popular and spots fill quickly, especially during peak seasons.
Bring high-SPF sunscreen
At higher elevations, UV exposure is stronger, so protect your skin during daytime outdoor activities.
Stay hydrated throughout the day
