Happy National Great Outdoors Month!

In Utah, one of the best ways to spend time outdoors is hiking! Here are some tips to review before heading out for a hike:

→Know the Trail. Cater your hike to the weakest or youngest member
→Use the Buddy System. Pair children with adults for added safety
→Take Plenty of Water and Snacks. Especially watch out for kids and infants who can lose fluids quickly
→Watch Out for Water. Warn children about hazards of flowing or still water
→Gear Up and Wear Sunscreen
→It's Ok to Be Noisy. Noise can scatter unwanted critters
→Become a "Tree Hugger" Tell kids if they get separated, hug a tree, and stay put

Now, head out for a hike with your family! Pick a favorite trail or try a new one. If you google "hikes for kids/teens" it will pull up several ideas in your area.
