The Angels Landing trail has reopened after repairs were performed on the chain sections of the trail at Zion National Park in Utah, park officials said Saturday.

The popular trail had been closed since Wednesday. Earlier this month, the trail, which has seen two deaths this year, was temporarily closed for maintenance.

Thirteen hikers have fallen and died from Angels Landing, or the trail to it, since 2000. The tally includes two Utah men who have died this year.
