Zion National Park

Forget everything we said before. Zion National Park left us astounded and speechless (and left Jenny more than a little nervous in some places). The natural rock formations here have to be seen to be believed. We were there, we saw them, but I am not sure we believed them! Watch this space for more.

Zion is a "must see" in our opinion. Regrettably we only had time to ride through it - there is much much more only accessible if you take the free shuttle further into the park. With this option, there are also what appear to be some brilliant hikes available. We just did not have the time which was disappointing. Once again, the phots do not do it justice but check out the hole ion the rock in the photos. This was one of the ventilation and light shafts in a vehicle tunnel that extends a mile through solid rock.
