Zion National Park


Over Memorial Day weekend Mike and I took a trip down to Zion National Park. We had a blast! It was  great weather the whole time, and the hikes couldn't have been better. Mike had never been down there before, and needless to say, as a Native Utahan I was excited to show it off!


The Lower Emerald Pool waterfall.








Even in the desert there are flowers!




Angels Landing!


Looking out from the top of Angels Landing.





Weeping Rock from Angels Landing. It's pretty cool you can see Weeping Rock from there.



We did it!





Walters Wiggle










Switchbacks. These things were brutal.




Angels Landing from Weeping Rock.



On our way up to Hidden Canyon.




An arch we found in Hidden Canyon.








A wooly caterpillar! These guys were everywhere.



On the way back down from Hidden Canyon.



There were chains to hold onto for this hike, too.





Weeping Rock again.. this time looking from Hidden Canyon.








On our way up Watchman Trail. I think I got like 50 pictures of that deer.






Absolutely gorgeous view from the top of Watchman Trail. The pictures don't do justice, especially with the darker clouds rolling in.




We hit Cedar Breaks on the way home. It was really pretty, but really cold! 40 degrees! It was quite the change when we were in high 70s and 80 degree weather all week.











Next trip.. San Diego, California!
