Zion Wilderness Map 

NO CAMPFIRES Campfires are prohibited in the Zion Wilderness. Fuel stoves and lanterns 

may be used for camping purposes, but should only be lit on bare ground away from all vegetation. In the interest of protection of environmental and scenic values, protection of natural resources, and public safety, these restrictions on fires are necessary. Please do all you can to protect the park from human caused wildfires. 

FOOD STORAGE All food and trash must be stored inside a secure hard sided container or interlocking wire mesh 

bag. For the welfare of park wildlife, your safety, and the safekeeping of your equipment, you should make your food items as unobtainable as possible. Your actions can put other people at risk of food pilfering, since animals regularly revisit areas where they easily obtained food. At worst, your behavior may lead directly to the death of a wild animal. These guidelines are meant to protect park wildlife, people, and equipment. 

LEAVE NO TRACE Protect the park from all graffiti and vandalism. All graffiti, including words, 

drawings, and arrows, no matter how small or superficially drawn, carved, scratched, or painted, is vandalism. Do not build rock cairns. If placed incorrectly, they can mislead visitors, cause unnecessary damage, and lead to potential injuries. Help protect Zion by not leaving your mark. Make memories, take photos, and leave no trace. 

HUMAN WASTE Pack out all solid human waste, toilet paper, diapers, and personal hygiene 

products. An environmentally friendly human waste disposal bag, complete with use and disposal instructions, is available for sale in the Zion Forever Park Store and at local outfitters. The contents of the disposal bag may then be deposited in the trash. Use of this waste disposal system is required for all Wilderness permit holders. 

GROUP SIZE Wilderness trails have a group size limit of 12. These limits apply to all trips into the park’s 

wilderness, including trips that do not require a permit. Group size limits are strictly enforced. Groups that exceed these limits may not split up and visit the same route, or wilderness trail on the same day, but may split up and visit different areas.
