Officials at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park are urging people not to visit as hot temperatures continue to soar towards 120 degrees.

"Hiking in temperatures exceeding 100 degrees Fahrenheit is extremely dangerous and can lead to potentially life-threatening situations. So heat exhaustion, heat illness, can set in before you're even experiencing symptoms," said State Park interpreter Brianna Pinto.

Pinto told CBS 8 that they've posted warnings about visiting on their social media pages, and have warning signs regarding the heat on trails.

"If you'd like to visit Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, we encourage you to come back in October, when we expect temperatures to become a lot more reasonable," said Pinto.
