Zion Nat'l Park & the Subway

Zion National Park is one of the gems of the National Park system and one of Utah's most beloved tourist destinations. The park is located in the far southwestern corner of Utah, where the Colorado Plateau meets the mountains and valleys of the Great Basin. The closest town is Springdale. The sculptured cliffs of Zion Canyon provide visitors with landscapes of unmatched beauty and diversity. One of my favorite places for spending the cooler days of autumn in the canyon of the desert. It boast one of the most amazing fall color displays in the Southwest.

  • Mysterious Waters

Falling water echoes in the nature carved tunnel where desert salamanders slither, frogs watch in camelflauge as the emerald pools shimmer and tempt cold hikers to go for a swim to releave themselves of the dry desert heat they went throught to make here.

  • Zion's Great White Throne (6,744 ft) rising high above into the clouds on an autumn evening.

Zion has many landmark and some of the them will have a large group of photographers in front of them as you may already know. The Great White Throne however will not! You will only find a few photographers here and there photographing the Throne as it catches it's last bit of golden light of the day just before the sunsets. If you ask me about it, I'll tell you it looks like a giant sandstone skyscraper looming above Zion Canyon.
