Yup, Dog HOT and people HOT aren't quite the same
While we're talking pups🐾also hearing anecdotally about incidents of dogs being poisoning by THC via discarded items and people poop. Keep an eye out and call @ASPCA_APCC pet poison control if concerned (888) 426-4435

I couldn't find a Google Map with all of the @NatlParkService units shown, so I made one!
Handy for trip planning and to catch those less well-known units.
You can also "copy" the map to make your own version to track your NPS visits 😎

The spot where it looks likely this person fell is one that had worried me on my last few visits.
Always watch your footing out there, and don't assume just b/c many walk away after pushing their luck means that you will too 😢

Just-in-time signage at Pecos National Historical Park
Interesting language too "Enter with care" seems to cover both the visitor and the resource 😊

Great advice from @alpineclubcan in @calgaryherald
“...so many people have no clue what scrambling really is. It’s full-on mountaineering without ropes on a mountain falling apart."
“Research, research, research and don’t overestimate your abilities..."

Wild places + blissful optimism can be a deadly combo 😢 Pls don't head out here if you don't want to be calculating & careful

So sad. Reminiscent of similar incident at Yosemite where those trying to help end up following the primary victim over the falls 💔
Don't ever underestimate a river, and never wade above a falls, no matter how calm the water may seem at that spot
