What To Pack
It can get hot in Utah during the summer. A lot of our travelers say that hikers would benefit from long, light pants and shirts to protect against the suns rays. The real kicker is that the nights can get chilly so pack a sweater too. It can be very dry, so moisturizers can be your friend. A lot of travelers suggest bringing a hat too to block out some sun on those bright days and there is also the occasional rain storm so make sure you check the weather and pack accordingly. A water proof backpack is always a good idea to store your camera and supplies in, even if you’re only strolling the town. For more packing tips, watch our Sundance Vacations Packing Tips video.
