Maple Pass
@Morgan.onthemap
North Cascades NP. We hiked in July and could not do the full trail do to snow and ice. May need microspikes

Mount Le Conte
@Morgan.onthemap
Smokey Mountain NP. Limited parking. This is a popular hike so you’ll definitely pass other people.

Broken Arrow Trail
@Morgan.onthemap
Located in Sedona. We did in the evening and only saw a few others on the trail. It does get near a Jeep route, but far enough away to not be bothersome

The Narrows
@Morgan.onthemap
Located in Zion NP. I highly recommend going to an outfitter in town to get boots, walking sticks, and possible waders depending on weather. The boots are a must for enjoying this hike!

Please remember to follow Leave No Trace Principles when hiking.
All of these hikes are considered day hikes, but you should still bring the necessities with you. Things I always bring on a hike:
• Small first aid kit
• More water than I think I’ll use
• snacks
• an extra layer (it’s always colder at the top of the mountain)
• headlamp (I always am mindful of daylight but it’s always good to have a back up)
