Zion Narrows Closure Forecasted

The Zion Narrows is likely to close between March 15-April 1 due to snowmelt, closing when water flow exceeds 150 cubic feet/second [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYsfUMBZuPU].

Closures are enacted for visitor safety, as high water flow makes hiking dangerous. Even experienced hikers can be caught off guard by the strong currents and debris. The exact dates of closure depend on the spring weather and snowpack conditions. Zion National Park officials monitor the water flow closely to determine when the threshold is met. Check the park's website or social media channels for up-to-date information on the Narrows' status. It's always best to confirm conditions before heading out.
