A few from Zion from late March/early April when on my honeymoon. Hard to escape for the magic hour light and the clouds weren't playing nice (none available) for most of our stay. As far as the different places visited during that week and a half, Zion was by far our favorite. Simply beautiful! I hope to make it back one fall and to hike the Narrows. It was closed when we were there due to flooding. However I did manage to hike to Angel's Landing.

    Nice series. I think I like #2 and #4 the most.

    Anybody ever tell you that you kinda look like Chris Farley?
    What I said when I saw the Grand Canyon for the first time: "The wide ain't wide enough and the zoom don't zoom enough!"
