Be responsible. Your safety and enjoyment, as well as that of your friends, family and fellow visitors, depend on the choices you make. Be kind, courteous and respectful to others.

Recreation and adventure begin before you leave home. Pack appropriately and check current weather forcasts, road conditions and travel advisories before your trip.

If you are traveling to the mountains during winter, carry the required traction devices for your vehicle. Bring a winter emergency kit that includes blankets, extra clothing, food and water, a flashlight and a snow shovel.

Be mindful of where you park, especially near your lodging. Observe all local parking regulations and posted signage to avoid inconveniences and ensure access for emergency services and maintenance crews.

Weather and mountain conditions can change quickly. Stay informed and be prepared to adjust your plans as needed.

Remember, the outdoors is not an amusment park. It is a natural enviornment that deserves your respect and care. Welcome to the great outdoors.

At resorts and recreation areas, staff members are there to assist you and help keep everyone safe. Please help them do their jobs by treating them with courtesy, patience and respect.

Recreate responsibly. Protect yourself, respect others and help preserve these special places for everyone to enjoy.
