Have a question? Ask a ranger. When you arrive at a park, locate the Visitor Center or Ranger Station and ask a ranger about:⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⚠️ Closures or Postings - Are there any trails, campsites, or other areas closed or posted due to hazardous conditions that may change your planned itinerary?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 🐊 Hazards - Are the alligators real? Is there any fire or animal activity, high water from recent rain events, rock fall, or icy trails and routes? Are you visiting a historic structure with uneven steps, unleveled paths, or no barriers to protect you from falls?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ☔️ Weather Changes - Is there rain, wind, snow, or extreme temperatures (high or low) forecasted for the duration of your trip?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 🚽 Restrooms - We’ll point you in the right direction. Over there, around the bend, just out back. Insider tip: Always check supplies before you commit. ⁣ ⁣ Image: Upclose view of a ranger hat with woods in the background.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #PlanLikeAParkRanger #nationalparkservice #parkranger #hat #travelgram
