    Zion permit changes?

    So while looking at permits for future Zion trips, I noticed a few things that I haven't seen before.

    Are these recent changes or am I just late to the game?


    This one is for keyhole and the change that caught my eye is "a permit only allows one trip through the canyon". Perhaps it was implied all along, but now this is explicitly clear.






    If you look at the canyon selection, I noticed that "Lower Refrigerator" and "Russell Gulch" have been added online. I know in the past I would request these in person but it seems like these are now added online.

    I'm sure there are a few more changes/ revisions but those definitely caught my eye.

    OH wow. looks like they did add a few more canyons. I find it interesting that they mention that you can only go through Keyhole once. Good luck enforcing that!

    My kids often did laps in Keyhole. It was one of the first slots they did solo. They liked to take a second lap without dad tagging along. I liked it because if there was an issue I was only minutes away. It was a good learning experience for them.

    Jolley Gulch as well.
    Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.
