Heads Up
- 1. Timed entry reservations are required for Arches National Park during peak season.
- 2. Carry at least one gallon of water per person per day; desert dehydration is a serious risk.
- 3. Check weather forecasts for flash flood warnings before entering any slot canyons or washes.
- 4. Download offline maps as cellular service is non-existent in large sections of the parks.
- 5. Day 7: 6h 2m driving — plan rest stops
