Zion

I think I have sent a postcard with this exact scene on it!

Our walk was just one on many one could make in Zion National Park. During our walk we came upon...

The babbling waters of the Virgin River.

Hanging gardens ( only a little in view here) and trickling water.

Swamp land

Grand vistas along the Virgin River

Quiet spaces

And well maintained paths which didn't intrude into the beauty of the area.

We found our way down to  and on to the river.

Making every effort to capture the beauty of the park.

Stopping to chat and photograph.

Others were more adventurous, gearing up with water proof boots, outfits and stout sticks.

Then heading out into the freezing waters of the river to make their way to Narrows Gorge.

Some just found a quiet spot to read the paper. (I have no idea who this elderly woman is).

On this escarpment ...... 

Can you see the blue dot? 

That's one of two people who must have woken this morning and thought...

"Let's climb the cliff face?!"

There were quite a few climbers out and up and about.

The most active we were was in our photography.

Deer  and....

squirrel ...were also seen!

It has been a truly glorious day and that was all on one of the many walks in Zion National Park.
