Close-up Upper Emerald

This is like looking inside one of those huge mountains. This is what they are made off. And one quarter up the mountain grow a bunch of trees. Sure hope the dirt will stay for them to continue to grow.

Hiking in Zion Park

It is an interesting hike up to the Upper Emerald Pool with lots of great views of the cliffs and vegetation. They are keeping the walkway pretty nice, even people with little kids can manage it. And here is a little bench of tree roots for someone to take a rest, as it can get pretty hot in the summer walking along the canyon walls.

That's My Cup

I wanted to capture the new leaves coming from the tree stump. Being so happy that the tree was still alive. But where to put my cup while taking the photo? This tree is in front of the Zion Park Lodge in the National Park in Utah. I wish that it gets a lot more leaves.

Virgin River, Zion Park

Hikers heading for the Emerald Pools Trail crossing the Virgin River. It's a great walk up and down the mountain with an easy gradient so even kids and older folks can manage it. At the end there is a waterfall which was not very strong at that day. But it created some nice fresh air to breath.

Virgin River Bridge

In order to get to the Upper Emerald Pools, where the water falls over the rocks, sometimes stronger and sometimes less, you need to cross the bridge and then turn right and up into the mountains. It's a great walkway, not too difficult, but it can get hot during the summer, walking along the steep mountain walls.

Zion Park Phototour

Virgin River view with the huge Zion Park Canyon in the background. There are times when the river is wild and overflowing, but this day was sunny and calm. A real pleasure.

Zion Park Beauties

Along these fantastic mountains inside the Zion National Park in Utah flows the Virgin River. Some times it is pretty calm but when the snow melts or a storm moves through, it can be wild and fast flowing. A plane is in the air, possibly from Salt Lake City going South.

Mountain Creek in Zion Park

Hiking in Zion Canyon Park is very exciting. The colors of the mountains change constantly depending on the sun and the clouds, and with mist moving into the canyon, the rocks look very dark, even though it is still morning.

Zion Park Giants

The Zion National Park has gigantic mountains forming a narrow canyon. Visitors park outside the canyon across from SR 9 and drive into the canyon by shuttle, which is very convenient. It’s very well organized and makes a lot of stops. There are also places to rest and eat, but mostly many wonderful hiking trails to use.

At Zion Park

The colors in the Park are very bright with very dark shadows. And the sky is often unreal in color.

Steep Rock Face

In the Zion Park in Utah there are several of these huge steep Rock Faces or Cliffs. This is just the top part of the mountain. It's absolutely amazing to see that on the cliff there are a whole bunch of trees growing. Some of them are actually pretty large. How can they manage to survive up there?

Hazy Morning at Zion Park.

Waiting since 6:00 o'clock for the shuttle to start services. The first few visitors had arrived. In the old days we could drive into the canyon by car, but eventually it got too crowded and they came up with a great shuttle service with many stops and places to hike or rest. This morning the mountains were hardly visible due to all the morning haze. And it was cold outside. But after a few hours it ended up being a warm and pleasant day.

Blue Hour at Zion Park

The sun has set and the blue hour starts. The mountain still has a warm dark red shine. In a few minutes it will be pitch black, as there are no street lights and no moon. Gotta have flashlights to find the way back to the RV.

It's Getting Dark

It's a lovely evening at the Campground of the Zion Park in Utah. Just a few sun rays are left on the mountains. It's rather quiet, no wind, no laughing of playing kids, no dogs, just the sound of nature. Good night to everyone.

Evening Is Falling

The last sun rays over Zion Park paint the peaks in a yellow/red light. It's a beautiful calm atmosphere and everyone is ready to settle down. Soon the elks and raccoons will come out for their evening meals.

Sunset at Zion Park

The mountain was glowing in the evening sun while the valley was already getting dark. The hill is covered with hard grass trying to withstand the hot and the cold times. Half way up the mountain there are still some bushes growing. Nature really knows how to survive in the most difficult places.
