Zion with Josh & Trevor - September

By now most of the family is guessing that Zion National Park is one of my favorite places to visit! OK– it’s true Zion is one of my favorite places..... I fell under the spell of the area years ago during one of several road trips through the SW and cemented my affection for the Park during a climbing trip in 2007. Since that time I have been eager to introduce anyone willing to this wonderful area, and this year we were privileged enough to take Josh and Trevor with us. One on one time with them meant so much to us as Grandparents, and the parents Jason & Krissy assured us they enjoyed their home alone time! Hmm! A mere 2 1/2 hour drive from Las Vegas, it is an easy drive to an area that will provide the a level of adventure to suit any taste, from simple sight seeing to Big Wall multi day climbs and canyon trekking, this place has a lot!. For the pure arm chair observer the park operates a shuttle service from the town of Springdale to all points of interest in the park. Bus tours are also accompanied with and ample commentary from the drivers. Ridding the shuttle busses provides the unexpected pleasure of meeting and conversing with people from all the corners of the world.
