Always watch your feet when walking (critters, sticks, stones, holes...). When you want to enjoy the scenery, stop. This is especially important when carrying camera gear (tripod). Wear sturdy footwear, no sandals or sneakers. Wear long pants, long sleaved shirts, and a hat. That sun is fierce in the SW. Keep unperishable food in your car. The distance to the next restaurant or store might be bigger than you are used to. Canned meals can be warmed under the hood of your car while you go shooting. Fresh fruit make a great travel companion, I especially enjoy grapes while driving. If you don't like country music on the radio, BRING SOME MUSIC!
The four corner region must be one of the most beautiful areas on this planet. Take the trip, don't worry, enjoy yourself, take many, many pictures.
