Hi Folks. We are currently in Las Vegas on a family visit. I just reserved a camp site at Zion River RV park for July 16. My plan is to run through Zion NP then on to Lake Powell. However the person I talked to told me to check with the Park Ranger to make sure we can get across the Park. She said there were reports of mud/rock slides because of the rain. She said the road, Route 9, is open today but that more rain is forecast. I tried to call the Park but the line is busy. I'll post more info on Monday when I arrive at the RV park.
This is just a heads up and any other info is apperciated.

This news article dated Saturday, 7/14 states that openings will occur at 9:30 pm on Saturday. However, best to check just in case it rains again. Rains really affect that whole area. Be careful. The park you're staying - Zion River RV - was also in a massive flood a few years ago.

The ROAD is not closed, only the trail by the river
Please give me enough troubles, uncertainty, problems, obstacles and STRESS so that I do not become arrogant, proud, and smug in my own abilities, and enough blessings and good times that I realize that someone else is in charge of my life.

1. VERY limited parking in Zion arrive before 7:00AM. The bus runs from the town to the park.

2. The tunnel (when we were there in March) was alternated one-way so people could drive in the middle of the road. Note limited height for RV. Check the web site.
