Before you go

Time it for golden hour

Views are clearest and warmest in the hour after sunrise and before sunset; haze builds through the afternoon.

Stay behind the rail

Cliff edges crumble, especially after rain. Keep kids and dogs back from unfenced drop-offs.

Check road and gate hours

Some overlooks sit on park roads that close at dusk or in winter.
