My husband and I backpacked The Narrows
on 10/8-10/9 and had a permit for Campsite #2. Only saw two other backpackers at end of day on 10/8 who started after us. On 10/9, we saw a man (late 20’s/30s) who camped illegally at campsite 10. He told us he had hiked from Cedar City and wasn’t sure where he was, and had not eaten for 2 days. He had a bindle instead of a backpack. He was not disoriented and seemed to be living off grid. We gave him food and continued our hike (we are older and not fast) and never saw him exit the river. We are now worried with the storm coming in. If anyone saw him that day please let us know. We got back after Visitor Center closed and only get recorded messages on NPS Park Ranger line.

I want to rent an e bike (probably Zion guru which is about 1.5 miles from park entrance. But have no idea where to park my car.

It’s my first time, I’m staying in hurricane so obv I can’t walk it’s a little ways out. I want to rent a full day so I’d pick up the bike 8am.

id need to park my car somewhere for about 9 hrs. I’m fine with paying for parking, I just have no idea where or what the options are.

November thanksgiving week for reference
