When recreating, please follow local area health orders via the NPS Public Health Update (U.S. National Park Service) and recreate responsibly.

The CDC has offered guidance to help people recreating in parks and open spaces prevent the spread of infectious diseases.

Recreate Responsibly:

When recreating, the public should follow current health guidance and consider physical distancing, frequently hand wash, and avoiding crowds in indoor settings. The CDC has offered guidance to help people recreating in parks and open spaces prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Visitors are encouraged to follow CDC suggestions for mitigating risks associated with the transmission of COVID-19 and are responsible for taking appropriate precautions to protect their own health.
