Taken in Zion National Park along the Grotto Trail, with the Great White Throne visible on the other side of the canyon.

On our recent trip we were only in Zion National Park for a couple of days and found it much too busy for our liking. One of the hikes we did there was to Scout's Overlook, from which one can hike to Angel's Landing, the outcrop visible in this photo. We did not hike out to Angel's Landing but did enjoy the hike to the overlook, that trail also quite steep with many switchbacks.

Angel's Landing is the best known hike in Zion National Park. It begins at the location of this photo and follows a very narrow ridge out to its end. Some parts of the trail are so steep and narrow that chains have been installed to help the hikers. Some of the chains are visible in the photo. We did not hike out to the end of Angel's Landing but finished our hike at Scout's Overlook, where this photo was taken.
