What To Do in March
Early spring
camping
Throughout the month
Statewide
Early spring, before summer crowds
arrive, is the time to enjoy peaceful and
quiet campgrounds. Mild temperatures
and low humidity provide perfect
conditions for long hikes, wildlife
viewing and exploring. Be prepared for
cool and wet weather: pack layers, extra
blankets, footwear for mud and rain gear.
