Day 2 - Zion National Park

For our first full day of vacation we visited Zion. Our plan was to hike the West Rim trail and Angel’s Landing trails. This is a very popular route and strenuous with a very high elevation gain. It’s also one of the most popular, iconic hiking trails in the entire US. In short, a trail not to be missed. I’ve included a link to a fantastic Youtube video to get you better feel for hike and the famous last half mile to Angels Landing. After this hike we headed down for lunch in the valley and visits to Zion Lodge and the Zion Human History Museum. After those visits we hiked trails to the lower, middle and upper Emerald Pools. We then headed for home after stopping at the Cafe Soleil in Springdale, UT just outside the park entrance.
