Your pet wants to have fun in the wilderness just as much as you do, but they have limitations as well.  Your pet must be on a leash at all times within the Monument and within command of you in the surrounding areas.   We are a pet friendly park and want to make certain your pet and you have a safe and enjoyable visit.  Review the following regulations and suggestions to ensure yours pet’s safety.

For your pet’s safety:

• Pets are allowed in the campground and day use areas as well as on trails but must be on a leash at all times within the Monument. Pets must be under physical control on a leash no longer than six feet at all times.
• Leashes are required within the Monument and are strongly suggested in the surrounding areas. Devils Postpile is home to insects, poisonous plants and wild animals, so keeping your pet on a leash helps us protect your pet and preserve the wilderness.  
• If you do take your pet’s leash off outside of the Monument it is required that you ahve verbal control over your pet. 
• Negative interactions with other pets, park wildlife, and visitors are a major concern for park managers.
