Beyond the Boundaries of Zion National Park

Of all the national parks, Zion National Park is my favorite. I love the rich red sandstone contrasted against the bluest of blue skies and verdant greenery that sprouts among the waterways. Surely, a water-less Zion would be a much less interesting one! In my opinion, the best time to visit Zion is during a light rain. The coral colored cliffs become a deep red and a multitude of breathtaking waterfalls emerge as the rain water runs off.
