Majesty in Southwest Utah

We flew to Las Vegas and drove to St. George, a town of 75,000 about 2  hours from Zion and 3 from Bryce.  This is where Brigham Young brought his people, to the land of Zion.  St. George receives on average 7" of rain and yet the deciduous trees were in full fall splendor.  No Ginkgos, though. Palm trees, yes!

Snow Canyon, a State Park with pale gray volcanic rocks


Snow Canyon, not far from St. George where we stayed,
 is filled with volcanic rocks of different colors.
