We got to Zion National Park around 11AM and soon found out that parking is a real problem. You need to take a bus to go anywhere and the parking lots were full. We went to the Museum which we spotted on the way to the visitors center and left our car there.
We then went to the grotto stop which was the beginning of the Angel's Landing trail which is a strenuous and narrow trail. Parts of the trail required chains to help you navigate the steep and narrow passages. Not for anyone fearful of heights. The trail ends at the summit high above Zion Canyon that gives you a 270 degree view of the entire canyon. The trail is 5 miles round trip with a 1,500 foot elevation change from the floor of the canyon to the peak.
The trip was strenuous to say the least but well worth the effort. The views were spectacular. I
am posting pictures here for Zion.
We called it an early day and now heading back to a motel to get a shower and good night rest...
