Question:

What should I know about safety at Grand Canyon National Park?

Gran Cañón de seguridad

La seguridad no puede ser su primera preocupación cuando usted visita un parque nacional, pero debería serlo. Hay varias cosas que usted debe saber acerca de la seguridad cuando usted visita el Parque Nacional del Gran Cañón.
? bordes del parque son extremadamente altas en elevación (media de 6.800 pies en el Extremo Sur y 8.000 metros sobre el North Rim). Las personas con problemas de corazón o problemas respiratorios deben ser conscientes de ello antes de que visite, ya que el esfuerzo físico en elevaciones más altas puede ser difícil e incluso peligroso.
? La mayoría de las áreas a lo largo del borde no tienen rejas de seguridad u otras barreras, y las rocas a lo largo de la llanta puede ser inestable. No vaya demasiado cerca del borde, puede ser peligroso.
? Mantenga a los niños lejos de la llanta.
? Mantenga a su perro con una correa en todo momento. Ellos no entienden el concepto de un borde del cañón, y muchos perros correr detrás de los animales o personas, justo al trote sobre el borde, y se matan en el parque cada año.
? Las temperaturas en la garganta del interior puede ser de al menos 20 grados más alta que las temperaturas en el borde. Excursión sin agua en la quebrada interior es peligroso, y así es el senderismo en las partes más calientes del día.
? No escalar solo, y siempre le digo a alguien a dónde va y cuándo regresará.
Siga estos consejos y que su visita a Nacional del Gran Cañón más seguro y memorable Park.
