Climbing routes on cliffs used by nesting raptors in Zion National Park will be temporarily closed beginning March 1, 2023. These birds are especially sensitive to being disturbed while they nest. If disturbed, a nesting pair may abandon their nest site and not return until the following year. The closure date is based on National Park Service monitoring of arrival to nesting sites on cliffs in the park from 2001 to 2022. https://www.nps.gov/zion/learn/news/do-not-disturb-it-s-nesting-season-in-zion-national-park.htm
