ZIONS NATIONAL PARK

This weekend I had the wonderful opportunity of traveling home to the great state of Utah, and visit Zions National Park. Surprisingly, it was beautiful weather, and hopefully I got a little tan :) We were able to hike Angel's Landing, which is approximately 3 miles one way (by the time we finished it felt like we had hiked about a million miles). The hike takes you up the side of a mountain, and you gain approx a thousand feet in elevation (give or take a few feet). This hike is not for the simple minded, or the weak spirited, but if you do make it your are able to see the beautiful scenery of Zions National Park from one of its highest elevations. One of the funniest parts of the hike was the very last part, where you go up about ten switchbacks, which are all covered in ice... let's just say it can be really fun to watch people slip and slide their way up and down :) The next time you are in the Southern Utah area, don't miss out on visiting what is my favorite national park :)
