💡 Tips from Dan
Your Road Warrior Guide
- •When visiting the Mill Creek - Moab Area, the best times are spring (March to May) and fall (September to October) when temperatures are mild and wildflowers or fall colors enhance the scenery. Wear sturdy hiking boots and breathable clothing, and don't forget a hat and sunscreen due to the high desert sun. Bring plenty of water and snacks, as facilities are limited. For stunning photo opportunities, arrive early to capture the soft morning light on the canyon walls, especially near the waterfalls. Be mindful of local customs—stay on marked trails to protect the delicate ecosystem. Always check weather conditions before heading out, as flash floods can occur, especially in summer. Lastly, consider bringing a small first aid kit for minor injuries while exploring the rugged terrain.
