There are many different hiking and camping trips available in Aspen, and you'll be taken care of every step of the way, but here are a few tips to keep in mind on your next outdoor adventure in Aspen.
1. Bring Navigation
The last thing you want to do while exploring the beautiful outdoors is to get lost. Any trip involving hiking, camping, or climbing should include a topographical map and compass at the very least. It's recommended that you also have an altimeter or GPS receiver.
2. Splurge on SPF
If you're going to be spending a significant amount of time in the sun, choose a sunscreen with a relatively high SPF to protect you from the sun's rays. Don't forget to reapply every two hours and after swimming and bathing.
3. Be Prepared
Be prepared for emergencies with a first aid kit. Your outdoor adventure first aid kid should include band aids, antibiotic ointment, scissors, bandages or tourniquets, hydrogen peroxide, and tape. A sharp pocket knife or multitool is also a handy addition to your pack.
4. Extra Food and Water
Always bring more food and water than you plan on consuming over the course of your trip. Pre-packaged snacks like trail mixes and dried fruit are a light and easy option. Hydration packs are also a good idea. Make sure to bring along a water bottle with a filtration system as well.
