To use the zipper library you have to be able to provide branch? children and make-node functions that apply to your data structure.
I don't see a way to provide a meaningful branch? or children function for the structure you describe. Vector? will not work as branch? as it will not return true if passed the first element in a vector, and next will not work as it will not return the children if passed the first element of a vector. It looks to me like you don't get past the first element because the call to z/next fails both (and (branch? loc) (down loc)), (right loc) and (up loc) and therefore marks the first element as the end of the of the structure. Is there a compelling reason for not using the vector-zip structure for your specific use-case?
