Safety Tips for Your Stay
Before Heading Out
- •Check the weather forecast
- •Tell someone where you're going
- •Wear appropriate footwear and clothing
- •Bring plenty of water and snacks
- •Carry a fully charged phone
In the Park
- •Stay on marked trails
- •Watch for wildlife but keep distance
- •Be aware of weather changes
- •Don't hike alone if possible
- •Turn back if conditions worsen
At Your Pod
- •Keep doors and windows locked
- •Know where the circuit breaker is
- •Familiarize yourself with heating controls
- •Because we are a regional area with amazingly tall trees, sometimes there is interruption to power by bark falling on lines. To work out if this is just your pod, please check to see if the car park lighting is working — if not, it is likely the whole area. Please send a message to the Retreat number above and Greg and Rachel will work to keep you updated. Please do not touch switchboards unless directed to do so by authorities or Greg.
- •Report any other issues immediately
