Hiking Zion in Winter

Zion National Park

Description

Hiking in Zion this weekend? Planning a trip for spring break? Zion is experiencing snowpack levels nearly 200% higher than average according to the Utah Department of Natural Resources. Expect trails in the park to have snow or ice, even if the forecast is sunny.

Park Ranger Ashlyn takes us up the West Rim Trail to Angels Landing and to show just how icy and snowy trails can be even after days of sun.

Plan like a ranger: bring traction devices, layers, plenty of food, and water.
