Before you climb

  • A GPX file is only a guide to direction. It does not replace a map, a compass, and the skill to read the terrain.
  • Ask the park or its managers for permits and the current state of the trail. Routes change with landslides, fallen trees and closures.
  • Do not climb alone, and tell someone at home your route and when you expect to be down.
