The daily average of about 50°F is a comfortable range for hiking and being outdoors all day. These figures are 1991–2020 NOAA climate normals from the nearest station, about 6.5 miles from the park.

Because June, July and August together draw about 35% of annual visitors, choosing April instead steps outside that summer crush — the single biggest lever on how crowded the park feels.
