Heads Up
- 1. Book national park lodging or campsites 6-12 months in advance for the best availability.
- 2. Pack versatile layers as mountain weather can change from sunshine to snow quickly, even in summer.
- 3. Carry bear spray and know how to use it, as both parks are active grizzly and black bear habitats.
