Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closures ***** RAIN AND WET ROCK ***** The sandstone in Zion is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB IN ZION during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.

Description

Johnson Mountain sits above the town of Sprindale at the confluence of the north fork and east fork of the Virgin river. See the new "Zion Climbing - Free and clean" guide book for more details.

Getting There

Start the approach from the public park just as you come into Springdale. Expect to hike up strenuous terrain for at least an hour to an hour and a half.
