Hydrate Before and During
Bring at least 1–1.5 L of water; desert air and short climbs dehydrate quickly even in cooler months.
Wear Grippy Shoes
Traction-friendly hiking shoes or sturdy trail sneakers handle slick sandstone and uneven paths better than sandals.
Protect Against Sun
Wide-brim hat, sunglasses and SPF 30+ sunscreen are important — shade is limited near many vortex viewpoints.
