Life on the edge















It's only 300-some miles away, but we don't get there all that often. When we do go, and trek the familiar trails and drink in the familiar-but-still-incredible sights, we notice that most of the people there have come from a lot farther away.













We heard French and German and met someone from Czech Republic. We heard Brooklyn accents and Southern drawls and met people from Missouri and Texas and Maine and California.

And those with us, who had lived in Utah for years and years, wondered that it took them so long to get those 300 miles to the sights others traveled much farther to see.








If you live far away, you'll want to put Zion National Park on your list of places to visit.
If you live close by, put it on the top of your list.
