Navigating rocky terrain can be challenging, as we experienced last summer in Grand Teton National Park. Here are some essential route-finding tips to help you stay on track and safe: 1. Study the Map: Familiarize yourself with the trail and key landmarks before you start. 2. Look for Cairns: These rock piles often mark the route. Follow them, but don’t create new ones. 3. Use Your Compass: In areas where the trail is unclear, a compass can keep you heading in the right direction. 4. Stay on Durable Surfaces: Avoid trampling vegetation by sticking to rocks and established trails. 5. Backtrack If Needed: If you think you’re off course, it’s better to retrace your steps and find the correct path. Stay safe and enjoy the adventure! #RouteFinding #GrandTeton #MountainSafety #TheNextSummit #OutdoorEducation #HikingTips #AdventureAwaits

DESERT TRAILS CRUNCH DIFFERENTLY There’s the sound that’s made when hiking shoes and boots walk on gravel. The crunch of hiking on a desert trail is different. The sound of gravel is almost as if the earth is trying to slip progress away. You may as well be walking on ball bearings. Even walking on gravel or rocky surfaces through a desert preserve still feels as if they were added rather than naturally occurring. Of course, that’s not true, but it’s how it feels. On old-time Western radio serials, the sound of walking on a desert trail was created by the sound effects of man crunching shoes against cornflakes. It’s not quite like that. Putting the description into words is challenging. Even if stepping firmly and not dragging feet, a slight rolling crunch can be heard when shuffling shoes to clear sand from the beach. And there’s the crunch. It’s something that has to be seen and heard rather than imagined. It’s a satisfying sound, a sound of progress, a soothing sound, as if each step, each crunch, takes you deeper into nature. The trails in Capitol Reef National Park are all that way. Located between the Maze District of Canyonlands National Park and Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, Capitol Reef is a modest-sized national park with hiking trails into the canyons and many flavors of history. The trail into Capitol Gorge narrowed after passing the junction with a side trail up the cliff to The Tanks. It moved deeper into the canyon towards the copse of scrubby juniper trees. Here in the canyon, Capitol Wash channels water in the canyon walls and blocks the hottest summer sun, allowing trees and shrubs to flourish. Few trails on the Colorado Plateau are straight lines. Inside the steep, narrow canyon, coming around every bend, a surprise reveals itself. Not far from the junction with The Tanks trail, after making the turn and exiting the cluster of junipers, a visual surprise awaited. The powerful, artistic combination of wind, rain, ice and snow carved miniature arches in the spit of sandstone poking its way into the trail. #capitolreefnationalpark #capitolreef #waterpocketfold #waterpocket #canyons #gorges #hiking #trails #Utah #coloradoplateau #desert #desertrails #trails

At approximately 625 miles long, the Mesoamerican Reef is a natural wonder and one of the largest structures ever created by living things.

Navigating the labyrinth of the high country is not just about the destination; it's about making smart, safe choices on your journey. Take a look at this rugged terrain on Middle Teton from this past summer. Stunning, isn't it? But without clear trails or cairns, such beauty can turn treacherous. Route-finding is an essential skill in the mountains, where the trail can disappear beneath your feet, and the path of least resistance can lead to dangerous, technical terrain. It's not just about reading a map; it's about reading the land. 🌄 Observe the contours, the vegetation, the rock formations. 🗺️ Anticipate changes in the terrain ahead and plan your moves. ⚠️ Be aware of your limitations and don't hesitate to backtrack if needed. Remember, the mountain won't adapt to you; you must adapt to the mountain. Stay safe, stay vigilant, and keep the wild in wilderness while respecting its challenges. #MountainSafety #RouteFinding #HikingAdventures #MiddleTeton #Climbing #OutdoorSkills #WildernessNavigation #LeaveNoTrace #MountainMindset #TheNextSummit
