Hike Smart this Fall Before you hit the trail on your next outdoor adventure, be sure to check out DEC’s Hike Smart NY page to learn about safety, best practices, and preparedness. While rec- reating on state lands, please follow the Hiker Responsibil- ity Code and avoid busy trail- heads. Discover trails less trav- eled and visit at a time when trails may not be as busy. Review regulations. Before you head to your next hiking destination, take a moment to review the rules and regula- tions for the area you will be visiting. Each state land prop- erty has rules in place to help protect visitors and the natural resources of the site. Be prepared. Trails are wet and muddy in many ar- eas. Wear waterproof shoes and walk through mud, not around it, to protect trail edg- es. Seasonal temperatures are dropping, and temperatures are even lower on high sum- mits. Many exposed summits are windy. When you check the weather, be prepared - you could encounter ice or snow at high elevations this time of year. Wear appropriate base layers, bring waterproof and windproof outer layers, and pack extra base layers and socks. If conditions become unfavorable, turn around. You can always complete your hike another day. Be respectful of hunters. Most small game and some waterfowl and big game hunt- ing seasons are open. Hikers should be aware that they may meet huntersINSERTS bearing fire- arms or archery equipment while hiking on trails. Recog- nize that these fellow outdoor recreationists have the legal right to participate in these activities in areas where it is permitted.*limi Huntingted distributio accidentsn involving non-hunters are ex- tremely rare, but hikers should wear bright colors as an extra precaution. Manage your time wisely. Be mindful of sunrise and sunset times, and plan accord- ingly. Start long hikes early to ensure you will have enough sunlight to finish before dark, and always bring a headlamp. By checking the approximate sunset time before you hit the road, you can avoid trouble on the trail.
