When hiking, take frequent rests or vary your pace to maintain your energy level. Drink plenty of water — even on cool, wet days. Never drink your entire supply between refills. For more safety tips, visit: fs.usda.gov/visit/know-befor….

Today we commemorate the somber events of September 11, 2001, and honor the lives tragically lost. We pay tribute to the passengers and crew of Flight 93, and the brave acts of firefighters, first responders, police officers, and civilians at Ground Zero. #NeverForget

Tis the season. If you happen to come across an elk calf while hiking or playing in the outdoors, leave it there. It's not abandoned. Mama is somewhere nearby. Elk facts via RMEF➡️rmef.org/elk-facts/
