HIKING - I CLIMBED, I FELL
Pitch a pebble off a mountain and it will bounce. And bounce. And yes, bounce - all the way to the bottom. Intriguing, but a bit deceptive because one would think that bouncing down the mountain is easier than bouncing up the mountain.
Only for a rock! Climbing up is much easier than coming down, and the experience may be deceptive to the inexperienced curious hiker and adventure seeker. Of course, that's not realized until one is high up with the eaglets and is trying to make their way back down again!

Here are a few tips that might help keep your adventure safe:
Avoid high areas that contain
loose rock.
Rocky areas make good homes
for some species of snakes, so watch where you poke your hands and
feet.
Always let the park ranger
or manager
know if you plan to climb so they can call out the troops if you
don't make it back.
Exercise sun tips and hydrating
tips.
Don special climbing gear to
minimize injury in the event of an accident.
