Trail conditions cannot be guaranteed. If you plan to hike, notify someone of your planned itinerary, especially your anticipated return time. Please follow the registration procedure. This is for your personal protection and assists the managing agencies in determining the level of trail use. Be careful of rainstorms.
Lightning strikes are common, particularly during the summer rainy season.
Do not seek shelter under trees. Feral hogs are common on some SOR lands. Their extensive rootings result in uneven and often unstable walking surfaces, so watch your footing. Rectangular orange blazes on trees and posts mark the main hiking trail routes. Blue blazes mark side trails.
