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 Lower Eardley Canyon , and makes a great combo day with either. The canyon has several natural bridges and a whole lot of charm.

Warning: Zero G has a semi-keeper pothole. Be prepared to do a partner assist or pack toss if necessary. Also, the final section will require a rap for larger canyoneers. Zero G is a good beginner canyon with competent leadership, but not a good candidate to solo unless you have done it before.
