	Zion National Park Lodging Lodging and services are available in East Zion. The main road through Zion, the Zion-Mt. Carmel Highway (SR-9) is open year-round, and is not a route the Zion Canyon Shuttle takes. Zion Canyon is deep inside the park. Towering 3000' walls form a slot canyon, forged by the violent rush of torrent water over millions of years. From late March to late October access through the six mile stretch of road is via the Zion Canyon Shuttle, the rest of the year the canyon is accessed in private vehicles.

The very nature of outdoor recreation has a potential hazard. Use good judgment, do not take kids where they should not go, and be prepared. Use good decision making skills. You are responsible for your own safety. Hiking the off-trail routes in this guide: Many of the hikes in this guide are "off the beaten path" or non-classic trails. These are not trails, but rather a way to get to a certain destination. Many of these places involve climbing, swimming, use of technical skills or other manner of locomotion. We encourage all that plan to use these routes to research their routes through before attempting them. Heed all cautions when hiking. Check weather conditions, wear appropriate attire and bring plenty of water on hikes. Many of the routes in this guide lead to places where rescue might be impossible. Be aware that weather, flash flooding and other condition may change trails, hikes and routes. Hiking in extreme weather, either hot or cold can make a simple hike dangerous.
