Heads Up
  • Day 7: 6h 6m driving — plan rest stops
  • Timed-entry reservations are required for Arches National Park during peak season.
  • Carry at least one gallon of water per person per day when hiking in high-desert heat.
  • Check the NPS website for flash flood warnings before entering any slot canyons.
  • Download offline maps as cellular service is non-existent in large sections of the parks.
