Night owls! I know we all like to spend our Sunday afternoons at the mall, but how ‘bout we don’t forget about [b]that stunning park[/b] that’s right on our front porch, huh? [h4]That’s right, everybody. This is KCRK, your community station for all things Ashwood Creek, and today we’re talking about hiking in our beautiful national park.[/h4] As someone who’s deeply familiar with the trails of Ashwood, I can tell you: Hiking is for everybody! But you can’t just saunter out in your tennis shoes and hope for the best. Let me break down what you’ll need to [b]make it back from Granite Ridge and its surroundings safe & dry.[/b] [h5][u][b]1. A Map of Ashwood Creek National Park [/b][/u][/h5] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39050852/2109951f23e1fb74cadf9f9c769f989be1506fa0.png[/img] Ashwood Creek is big and, no matter how much of your childhood you spent fishing & running around in the park, it’s better to be safe than sorry. The [b]park map is a handy visual aide that can help you navigate the stunning landmarks of the park and lead you to safety[/b] whenever you need it. Especially handy when going off-trail. [h5][b][u]2. Light Up The Night[/u][/b][/h5] Listeners, we all know you shouldn’t be in Ashwood Creek National Park after dark – but we also know that we’ve all done it. If you do decide to venture out after sundown, [b]please make sure to bring a flashlight[/b]. You’ll never know what obstacles and critters you’ll come across in the pitch black. Trust me, you want to be prepared when you choose to stay the night and witness the incredible sunrises we get here. [h5][u][b]3. Emergency Broadcasts Are Your Friends[/b][/u][/h5] Trust me, this is not just self-promotion. I already [i]know[/i] I’m your favourite radio host. But the trophy for Second Most Important Radio Broadcast in Ashwood Creek must go to the [b]Ashwood Creek Emergency Station[/b]. So don't forget to pack [b]an AM/FM radio[/b]! It’s the best way to stay up-to-date with any news from our steadfast crew of Park Rangers. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39050852/3daf852830d42752a73dcf5c811977167cec1940.png[/img] [h5][u][b]4. Stay In Touch [/b][/u][/h5] This one is for the thrillseekers out there. If you’re planning on rafting, bouldering, or going off-trail in general, it’s important to [b]stay in contact with the outside world[/b]. We already have a search party out there and we’d be happy to keep that number as low as possible. [b]If you’re scared of getting lost or injured, bring a Walkie Talkie![/b] And if you take those precautions and wear a firm pair of boots, you should be good. Think I missed something? [b]Dial the station phone and tell me about your hike essentials.[/b] We’ll be taking calls after some smooth jazz, right here on KCRK Ashwood Creek. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]Radiolight[/b] [list] [*] [url=https://x.com/krystofknesl]Twitter[/url] [*] [url=https://bsky.app/profile/krystofknesl.bsky.social]Bluesky[/url] [/list] [b]Iceberg Interactive[/b] [list] [*] [url=http://www.twitter.com/iceberg_int]Twitter[/url] [*] [url=https://www.tiktok.com/@iceberg_int]TikTok[/url] [*] [url=https://www.facebook.com/iceberginteractive]Facebook[/url] [*] [url=https://www.youtube.com/iceberginteractive]YouTube[/url] [*] [url=https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/iceberg]Steam Publisher Page[/url] [/list]
