The Experience
Before You Go
Beat the heat early
Departures are morning; take advantage of cooler temperatures at the rim and bring sunscreen and a wide-brim hat.
Pack a small daypack
Skywalk restricts loose items—carry a compact bag for water, ID, and camera essentials.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Altitude and sun can dehydrate quickly; drink water before and during the tour and sit if you feel lightheaded.
Respect cultural spaces
The West Rim is Hualapai land—follow guide instructions, support local vendors, and photography requests.

Conservation Note
