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.

East Side Story
Park at the 2nd pullout after the tunnel...Drop into the wash and walk ~5min, looking for this broken crack system on the right splitting the headwall...Find a faint easy scamble to the base....Do an easy boulder problem to a good jug, clip 2 more bolts, and set up for the crux.. bust through and enjoy good jugs for another 5 bolts.
