#028 – Zion National Park

Zion National Park! After leaving Vegas, we drove to St. George and made our way to Zion National Park. The weather was amazing and we were able to do some hikes and got to check out the Angles Landing Hike. While less than a five mile hike, it was along some step cliffs and required some climbing. The views were amazing. I took about 1300 pictures over the weekend and here are some highlights.

 

Angels Landing: Taken from the peak looking down on the Virgin River below… there was a cliff right behind me that would take me directly to the river.

Lizard: Or are these things called geckos. This little guy was following us on our way up to Angels Landing.

Flowers: What would a hike be without a few spring-time flowers.

Squirrel: This bushy guy was also one the trails. He was pretty friendly.

Mountains: Cool picture, I used a German filter on this to get the colors like they are.

The whole weekend was amazing and I had a great time. Many more trips are going to happen over the summer. If you are having any difficulties seeing the pictures, feel free to check out my blog at www.khanfire.com/blog

 

Have a great day!
