Zion NP

Sunday: (05/19) Oatmeal for breakfast. We headed on down highway 89 again today heading to Zion NP. We were there by 10:30. We spent the day looking around, visited the museum, visitor center, and stopped at all the scenic lookputs and shuttle stops.


Zion has some big rocks, so big they aren't good a posing for pictures. They don't alway fit.


Some nice flowers were out. Just how did that little river make that big deep gorge?


Everything is very tall.


I took a short hike out on the River Trail to the beginning of the Narrows and then returned. From there one must start wading in the river and I wasn't ready to do that. Lunch was our usual ham and cheese sandwiches. We stopped in Hatch, about 12 miles from Panguitch, at the Mountain Harvest Restaurant (above right) for dinner. Lou and Dawn shared a steak dinner and I had a pulled pork sandwich. Excellent dinner.
