I hiked East Rim today. It is beautiful! It was easy to stop car near Canyon Junction and ask to ride me to the East Entrance. My next plan is West Rim Trail,...
If you are up to the exercise, you can start at the Grotto, hike up the West Rim Trail as far as you want, then return. That is the prettiest part of the hike...

Hiking from Mount Carmel Jct. to Checkerboard would be awesome! That is a hike I really want to do. If that was not enough you could add the East Rim to...
Hi all. I'm the overweight middle aged cab driver in Denver who had a wonderful time in Zion last fall. My friend in Minnesota who had never been camping...
Most backpacking hikes in Zion are in the 2-3 day range. Within the park, La Verkin Creek Trail, the Narrows Top-down route, and the West Rim Trail are all...
Karl; If you can get to Great Basin a day early I don't think you will have trouble camping at the top. The hike to the Brisslecone forest is a nice easy hike...
Outstanding shot Joe! Very timely as well....makes me want to get hiking in some water as the temps start to rise. Its supposed to be in the 80's this weekend....
Thanks Bo. Hoping to do E.Fork some time again soon. Been some time now (outside of Misery). Looking forward to seeing your report on WT! Many of us will...
I would certainly agree that you probably won't have problems getting a campsite at the upper campground, which is at around 10,000 feet. As for temps, even in...

Delta should do the trick. Baker is absurdly tiny. A self-service (ie: unstaffed) gas station, something referred to as a restaurant, and that's about it... ...

At very least you will want to gas up in Delta. Gas prices are high here, but compared to what you will pay out there, it is a bargin. Plus, it really isn't a...
