Zion National Park

3/17/2016

1 Comment

 
     This week we visited Zion National Park in Utah.  Driving to the park from St. George, we saw many rock formations in a variety of colors.  Once we got into the park and got on the propane-powered shuttle (the only way to go into the park from April to October) the natural beauty of the park was evident.  The walls of the canyon, which have been building and changing for 250 million years glow in the sunlight in reds, grays, tans, and whites.  Once an inland sea, geographical formations built up over time and were etched by winds and water to create this natural beauty.
     If you want to hike, bike, camp, or commune with nature, Zion is a place you can do that.  We went on several of the easier hikes and though there were many others on the trails, it was never crowded.  Whether looking up at a massive 6,000 foot mountain of Navajo sandstone or looking down into a 1500 foot canyon, there are sights on which to feast your eyes.
