Minication Zion

After a day of climbing and another day of riding, we decided to head into Zion to do the turista thing.  The wifer had not been to Zion and we were in the hood so it made a lot of sense to go in and check out some of those big cliffie thingies.

We took the dogs for a walk along the trail by the visitor center (the only trail that allows pups in the park).  It was a nice way to walk along the valley floor and look up at the formations.  Like most National Parks, this place makes you feel pretty puny.  Zion is such an amazing place and we really only just saw the very tip of the iceberg.  I would like to head back and so some hikes through slot canyons, etc.  Angel's Landing is another hike worth re-doing - you definitely feel a wee bit exposed while hiking up but the scenery is amazing once you crest.

Speaking of scenery....here are some pix:
