3 DISCOVER AN ANCIENT LANDSCAPE Awaken the spirit of adventure at Amangiri, in a land where iconic geology reveals millennia of history
4 The Amangiri Experience Thousands of square miles of untouched scenery surround Amangiri, which lies at the gateway to major national parks in the Colorado Plateau. From canyoneering and cultural insights to excursions by air, bike, boat or on horseback, guests are encouraged to discover the region their way. Long-standing relationships with local experts allow Amangiri to arrange tailor-made itineraries for every guest a bespoke approach that guarantees a creative, adventurous and fulfilling experience. Advance reservations are encouraged. To find out more about the possibilities on offer, or to create a custom itinerary, please contact the Amangiri Experience Team, who will be delighted to assist. An Ethical Journey Amangiri is fortunate to call the Colorado Plateau home, but with this honor comes responsibility. To experience the landscape in its unaltered, pristine state, guests are encouraged to travel quietly and lightly on the land. Cultural artifacts are safeguarded by the Archaeological Resources Protection Act. It is illegal to remove or disturb archaeological or historic sites, or any artifacts, no matter how recent, found on public lands. It is illegal to carve into any of the rocks, on or off Amangiri property. Enjoy and learn from historical and archaeological sites, but respect these national treasures. Some are sacred to Native Americans, or are important cultural reminders of pioneer heritage. Natural objects of beauty or interest, such as antlers, petrified wood and coloured rocks, enhance the atmosphere of the backcountry and should be left for others to experience too. Quick movements and loud noises are stressful to animals. Travel quietly and do not pursue, feed or force animals to flee. Do not touch, get close to, feed or pick up wild animals. Amangiri thanks guests in advance for joining its effort to protect this fragile environment. 5
5 SELF-GUIDED ACTIVITIES Amangiri s property boundary encompasses 600 acres (243 hectares) on the Colorado Plateau so there is plenty to explore simply by stepping over the threshold and into the wilderness. Experience the freedom of hiking, driving or boating in complete seclusion with Amangiri s suggestions for self-guided discoveries.
6 Self-Guided Activities A few suggestions for spending quality time while at Amangiri.

21 Discover the Via Ferratas Invented centuries ago in the Italian Alps, a via ferrata ( iron road ) is a series of cables and ladder rungs, fixed to the rock face to enable the ascent of steep mountain routes.

39 Desert Hiking Tips Hike in cooler temperatures Summer hiking presents challenges that cannot be taken lightly. Plan an early morning or evening departure to take advantage of cooler temperatures. Hiking in direct sunshine, in the middle of the day, increases the risk of a heatrelated illness. You will make better time and feel better if you use shaded rest stops often in your travels. Carry plenty of water Adequate water intake is critical for a safe and enjoyable trip in the desert environment. When planning a full day s hike, water should be the heaviest item in your pack. Some desert travelers will drink at least a gallon of water per day. While hiking in the desert heat, everyone sweats around quart of water and electrolytes for every hour they walk in the heat. Eat adequate amounts Eating enough food will help guarantee you are replacing the electrolytes (salts) that you are sweating out. You will need two to three times your normal food intake to meet your energy needs while hiking. Plan your trip carefully Always tell someone where you are going and when you will return. Check local weather forecasts and road conditions. Summer monsoons and flash floods can make travel in narrow drainages extremely dangerous. Stick with your itinerary, and check in when you return. It is easy to become disoriented in the desert, where many landmarks and rock formations look similar. Amangiri staff members are available to offer advice or help plan an itinerary. Dress properly Protect yourself from the elements. Good hiking shoes, loose-fitting breathable fabrics with UPF protection, a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses and sunscreen are a must. A high SPF sunscreen should be applied liberally and regularly. Desert temperatures can reach over 100 degrees in the middle of the day. In winter, dress in layers and wear warm gloves and a warm hat that covers your ears. 40
