Beyond the Boundaries of Zion National Park

Zion's visitor numbers have increased by 40% over the past five years and while I do not begrudge the multitudes from coming to appreciate the beauty and adventure Zion offers, I have sought alternative places to enjoy my beloved Zion. I have found, the beauty of Zion is not contained inside the boundaries of the park. Southern Utah abounds in stunning landscapes and incredible geology. Just beyond the outskirts of the park, there are refreshing waterways with impressive waterfalls and way fewer people.  All one has to do is follow the road less traveled!

April and George fell in love with Kanab traveling through on their way to an art show. They never imagined they would live in the quaint, beautiful town. 

George has been a professional Artist Blacksmith for over 25 years. April hand crafts protective leather aprons and manages both businesses.  In 2014, George was offered a seasonal opportunity to perform public blacksmith demonstrations outside the east entrance into Zion National Park. Near the end of the second season, George and April found they didn't want to return their remote, ranching corner of New Mexico. 

Their home in New Mexico sold quickly which, in turn, meant they had to quickly find a home in Kanab, a very hot and limited real estate market. When they looked at this property with two homes on it, they decided they would share Kanab's beauty with others by hosting a vacation rental.  

They enjoy riding four wheelers, hiking and kayaking- all perfect pass times for the area.
