So we arrived safely in Hurricane Utah. Entering the southwest corner of Utah, you. first pass through St George, a growing town in a valley between the hills here. Hurricane is a few miles east. From there to Zion is about 30 minutes. Our first day there was the third day after reopening and they had some things closed but most were open. The park is a long narrowing canyon with shear rock walls. Daylight and shadows intensify the colors and trails bring you so very close to the wall so you can see the water weeping thru the rocks. Like other major canyons, it is amazing what water can carve over thousands of years. Day two, we turned north just before the park entrance and drove up into the Zion wilderness. There, north of the park, your focus is not limited to the narrow canyon, but to the hills, valleys, and mountains far out in the distance. Day three, we visited Sand Hollow State Park. This good size reservoir is surrounded red rock and sand. Truly something for everyone with swimming, fishing, boating, dunes for atvs, and more.
