The Zion in Winter

After leaving Las Vegas, we headed north-east for a bit before arriving at Zion National Park. What was expected to be a relatively warm weekend, turned out to be a winter wonderland. The snow from the eastern high country also fell on the valley floor.

The afternoon of the second day, however, found most of the snow had melted. The sun helped to warm the valley and allowed us to do a little exploration of the red rock country.
