Article: Three Climbers at Zion National Park and a Monkey Wrench
I have a friend who questions the accuracy of this story, while quite interesting there are a couple of points that seem in error.
The problem is there is no gate at the east entrance to the park. The road within the park - the Zion-Mount Carmel Road - connects to Utah State Route 9 at the main park entrance and at the east entrance. As such, the road stays open at all times and was kept open even during the infamous government shut-down period a few years ago. Also there are no lights in either of the two tunnels along that road so there could not have been anyone in the tunnel replacing them.
Maybe the only thing that is correct with that posting is their tossing of their beer cans along the way?
