That average of about 76°F is warm enough that midday heat is worth planning around.
June falls inside the park's busiest stretch: June, July and August together pull about 31% of the year's visitors, so a visit this month means sharing the park with the peak-season crowd.
You'll have about 14.7 hours of daylight in June to explore — near the year-round maximum.
Park-wide, 2025 drew 3,993,717 recreation visits, down 22.6% from 5,160,769 in 2024.
