Hype:
Zero G, although not a destination, makes a great side trip while traveling between I-70 and Hanksville. It is also very close to both the North Fork of Iron Wash, and Eardley, and makes a great combo day with either. The canyon has several natural bridges, and a whole lot of charm.Login For Full Details!

This canyon is fun for sure, but after the keepers are encountered it could turn very ugly. If you or someone in your party has a waist size of 36 or larger, you may find it impossible to pass through the final squeeze in this canyon. The problem becomes this: you have already passed through the keepers encountered 200 yards previously and you cannot go back up the canyon to hike out. The keepers are Extremely difficult if not impossible to pass backwards through. Bottom line, be aware and be prepared. Larger guys should not go through the keepers because they will likely be trapped in the area between the keepers and the final squeeze. It would not be fun to spend the night in the canyon waiting for help.
