@dirtdiv3rjohn If you plan on not leaving the park that works great! When entering or exiting the park and are planning to return, make sure you keep your pass with you so you don't have to pay twice to enter.
Leaves are falling in Zion, but the number of visitors is not.
1. Put your park pass in your pocket, not in a car or hotel room.
2. Learn about Angels Landing hike permits: https://t.co/h5V5b90lMd
3. Park on pavement to conserve plants, animals, and history
More tips below!

Electric shuttle buses are here! These are the first of an entirely new fleet of battery-electric buses that will replace the current propane-powered vehicles.
Have questions? We have answers, watch the video to learn more.

National Park Service wildland firefighters and partners are responding to a lightning caused wildfire in the southwestern part of the park.
We can't stop lightning, but we can prevent human caused wildfire. Use #FireSense during travels this summer!

The Zion National Park Marsh Madness champion is the Tiger Salamander!!!
Thank you to everyone who voted! Do your part to protect wildlife in the park by leaving no trace and staying on trail to keep the marsh and all other Zion ecosystems thriving.
Due to rocks on road, visitors cannot go past Kolob Canyons Visitor Center. This includes drivers, hikers, and cyclists.
Zion-Mt. Carmel Hwy and Zion Cnyn Scenic Dr (where shuttles go) are not affected.
We will share updates when roads' status changes.

In a shocking twist, our Twitter and Instagram polls resulted in different finalists!
Marsh Madness results are decided based on total number of votes across all social media platforms
Which means our championship bracket is (drumroll):
