Red Canyon arch as we depart for Zion. Pretty isn't it...the last days of October and we were expecting an Indian summer. However, I am thrilled we got to see the scenery decked out in snow!
This trail leads you to Scout & Angel
Landings....3.1mi to the top of Angel's Landing. At 2.6 mi you reach Scout's Landing where lunch and a respite. We did not use the cables to pull ourselves up the last .05 miles, along the very narrow, and in some places missing trail to the top. The view from our vantage point was just fine...
Chipmunks are friendly and not afraid....they check out everything, including your physical space.
We arrived with no reservations in the full-service campground, however we did have a spot each of the 4 nights we were in Zion...even the hassle of moving every day could not spoil the beauty and splendor that is Zion.
We did take the Emerald Pools hike although the pools were more mud-like this late in the season. I have included a short video of the waterfall that feeds the pools. Enjoy....
Valley of Fire State Park located (approx) between Bryce and Las Vegas afforded us the opportunity to see different formations of red rock up close and have lunch in the shade of a gigantic rock.
