| Kolob Canyon is the north section of Zion National Park. |
 |
| The first good view in Kolob Canyon |
 |
| A zoomed in view. |
 |
| Sign that identifies the peaks. |
 |
| The next two photos show the same view as the sign. |
 |
| Our first attempt at a self portrait |
 |
| We decided it was time to hike a trail. |
 |
| The trail started off gravel and then turned into sand, rock and sections of wood as erosion barriers. |
 |
| Then we came to this section that looks like it's really muddy when wet. The park has made 5' square x 12" tall raised platforms made of wood and mud. There were 20 of them and I bet they make a huge difference when it is muddy. |
 |
| There's a 6" gap between platforms so the water can move through. |
 |
| Views from the trail |
 |
| There's still snow in the ravines of those mountains. Of course it did snow in some of the higher elevations in Utah a few days ago. |
 |
| Tree-lined ravine. |
 |
| Nolan did some flower sniffing. |
 |
| View from the end of the trail. |
 |
| This lizard was a real poser. Most run and hide as soon as they see or hear you. This guy stuck around and Nolan got a lot of photos of him. |

Zion National Park in Utah was the very first National Park I ever visited. Today, when I think of Zion National Park, I remember not only an incredible silent stream of stars, but also my two favorite hiking trails.
