Pro Tips
The reservation is not the permit. Pick it up in person at the Zion Canyon Visitor Center wilderness desk the day before or the day of, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
If your route is not one of the 17 named divisions, book All Other Climbs and put the route in the comment box.
Spring closures land on some of the best walls. Confirm your route is open before the quarterly release, not after.
