Important Hiking Tips • Let someone know where you are going and when you expect

to return.

• Before you begin your trip, obtain a detailed topographical map of the area you will be hiking. Learn to orientate yourself using a compass or GPS unit.

• Be prepared and watch your children. The most common dangers in the Tri Canyon area are snakes, lightning, extreme temperatures/weather, avalanches, rockfalls, and high streamflows.

• Avoid poison ivy and help prevent erosion by staying on the trail. Do not take shortcuts.

• Carry a jacket, extra food/water, flashlight, and first aid kit in case of an unexpected delay or emergency.

Watershed Restrictions

Over sixty percent of the drinking water used by the residents in the Salt Lake Valley comes from streams, lakes, and springs in the Wasatch Mountains. It is vital that water from this watershed be kept as clean as possible. Please observe and respect watershed boundaries. The following regulations are strictly enforced: 1) Backcountry camping is not permitted within 200 feet of any open water (lakes, streams, marshes, etc.). 2) Visitors must carry out everything they bring in. “Pack it in Pack it out”. 3) No Dogs or Horses.

Wilderness

The Mount Olympus Wilderness area shown on this map is managed “to assure that an increasing population, accompanied by expanding settlement and growing mechanization, does not occupy and modify all areas.” Wilderness is an area where “the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, and where man himself is a visitor who does not remain” (The Wilderness Act of 1964). To protect wilderness values, motorized or mechanical vehicles, including bicycles and hang gliders, are not allowed.
