I just picked up a permit for campsite #4 at the West Rim of Zion on August 19-20th. I plan on camping at Lava Point Campground on the 18th, start hiking Saturday morning, camping at #4 Saturday night and hiking out to the Grotto Sunday.
The permit is good for 12 people and right now I only got about 4 committed to go. So I am giving out the extra spots free of charge first come, first serve.
If you want to go email me: james_b_wads@msn.com

Oh damn, I so wish I could go. But my wife is not too pleased with me being gone 4 weekends in a row already :frustrated:
Please post back here if you filled up the spots? Maybe I can get away....again :five: |

Yeah, stupid wives don’t ever let their husbands go camping enough. (this is just a joke, I love my wife very much)
You should talk your wife into going along with us. One of my buddies is trying to talk his wife into going. I would drag my wife down there, but she is 5 months pregnant so I’ll let her pass this time.

| I'm sorry the wives aren't into this sort of thing. It's right up my alley. :nod: |

Yeah up my alley also. The West Rim hike is one of my favorites in the park - pretty flat but with some miles with some fabulous views. Haven't had a chance to do it yet this year. Anyway would love to go but have to work my low paid second job! Maybe I'll just not show up - the boss won't know he'll be out of town. :nod:

I still got a bunch of spots open for this one. Sure would be a shame to let them go empty...
