💡 Tips from Dan
Your Road Warrior Guide
- •The best time to visit the La Sal Mountains is late spring to early fall (May to September) when wildflowers bloom and trails are accessible. Dress in layers, as temperatures can vary significantly; sturdy hiking boots and a waterproof jacket are essential. Bring plenty of water, snacks, and a camera to capture stunning vistas, particularly at Fisher Lake or from the summit of Mt. Peale. For insider knowledge, start hikes early to avoid afternoon thunderstorms and consider visiting during the week for fewer crowds. Always stay on marked trails to protect the delicate ecosystem, and remember that wildlife encounters are possible, so maintain a safe distance. Lastly, practice Leave No Trace principles to respect the pristine environment and local customs by greeting fellow hikers with a friendly smile!
