Access Issue: Road Work in Kolob Canyon Details

Zion NP is doing road work in Kolob Canyon part of the park from May 1, 2018 to December 1, 2018. The road is closed and there is no access to Kolob Canyon during this entire time period.

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.

Closures in effect March 1

Description

This route starts on a leftward trending slab on huecos. Continue to follow huecos and cracks to the summit. The final pitch wanders and follows the path of least resistance. Clip in on the P4 rappel to make it to the next station. Enjoy the huecos and adventure.
