We all know there is a fire. Is everything still closed? Is there a website we can check.

You can check out the Zion Permit page and see some of what is closed.

https://zionpermits.nps.gov/

Only problem is this page only lists the canyon where on-line permits are issued and doesn't mention canyons like Oak or Boundary. As of this morning the NPS is still listing Subway, Imlay, Heaps, Behunin as closed.

You can follow the fire causing the most damage at this website:

Follow the Kolob fire here.

Hey Price.... you coming to town? If so when? Also lets plan a date to do the Darby Ice Caves. That is still really high on my to-do list. I planned to call Sam after the 4th to see whats up... :nod:

Was at Zion today and stopped by the BC desk. Asked about The Subway and the ranger stated that it looks like even if the fire goes out it might be 2-3 weeks before they open the west side of the park. Bummer!

I would check a couple of days prior to your departure for the latest info.

It appears that all Zion Canyons requiring a permit are currently opened with the exception of The Subway.
