- •The weather can be unpredictable, so dress in layers and remember to pack sunblock and hats for sunny days, and raincoats for unexpected showers.
- •While there are no guided tours, you can do some research beforehand to enhance your understanding and make the visit more meaningful.
- •Make sure to bring your own food and water as there aren't any facilities on-site.
- •Remember to leave no trace. Let's keep the site clean for other visitors and future generations to enjoy!
