As the summer begins, plenty of travelers will spend their time visiting national parks.
Locally, that means increased activity at Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Grand Canyon National Park and Death Valley National Park.
Those looking for safety advice were able to take part in a virtual round table Tuesday with national park rangers and experts.
Attendees got the opportunity to hear tips and advice on topics — including trip planning and heat, water, and wildlife safety — from professionals. In addition to officials from Lake Mead, Grand Canyon and Death Valley, other experts from national parks included:
— Blue Ridge Parkway (North Carolina, Virginia).
— Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (Georgia).
— Delaware Water Gap (New Jersey, Pennsylvania).
— Grand Teton National Park (Wyoming).
