Bring a waterproof layer
Mist and spray can drench you even on sunny days—pack a breathable rain shell or a lightweight poncho.
Wear grippy shoes
Paths can be wet and uneven; closed shoes with good tread reduce slipping risk on viewing platforms.

Use a ziplock or dry bag for phones and cameras—spray can damage gear fast near the main falls.
