↑ 5,790 FT · HALF MILE CHAINS

Permit required since 2022. Less than 3 feet wide in places, with drop-offs of up to 1,000 feet.

Sandstone fin above Zion Canyon, reached by a half-mile chain-assisted ridge.

— The Story

A half mile of chains.

You earn the last half mile of me by holding a chain bolted into bare sandstone while the ground falls away as much as 1,000 feet on either side of a spine less than three feet wide in places. Since 2022 you need a permit even to try — not for difficulty, but because too many people wanted to stand somewhere that exposed.

I'm a fin of Navajo sandstone driven into the floor of Zion Canyon. The trail to my base climbs through Walter's Wiggles — 21 switchbacks cut into the cliff and finished in 1926 — before the railings end and the chains begin. Everything memorable about me happens in the stretch most trails would never let you walk.

The contour on this piece is my real edge, drawn from USGS 3DEP elevation data. The drop is to scale.

There is nothing between you and the canyon floor but a steel chain.
