Tips for a responsible rooftop high

Pairing cannabis with rooftop views is an amazing experience. But in order to get the most out of this, you should remember a few quick tips.

• Know your limits: Rooftops are public spaces: consume discreetly and responsibly.
• Hydrate: Cannabis and summer sun can dehydrate quickly. Keep water close.
