Heads Up
- 1. Timed-entry reservations are required for Arches National Park and Zion shuttles 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, especially when visiting slot canyons or Capitol Reef.
- 4. Fuel up in major towns; stretches of Scenic Byway 12 and I-70 have very limited services.
