Cold Enough To Finally Snow

Desert Southwest, National Parks, Seasons, Utah, Waterfalls, Weather, Zion

It’s been a warm winter in Southern Utah with decent rains but no snow. Until this past week where it was just cold enough in and around Zion National Park to get a few inches. Another future post will show heavier snows at Zion’s Kolob Terrace.

Fresh snow has fallen at Zion Canyon at Zion National Park, Utah.

Fresh snow has fallen at Eagle Crags just outside Zion National Park, Utah.

Favorite Images Of 2020

Because of the pandemic, I didn’t travel much or explore new places. So my images this year were few and far between. Enjoy the slide show. Watch in HiDef at Full Screen.

A Subway In Utah?

Desert Southwest, National Parks, Photography, Waterfalls, Zion

Back in October, three friends and I trekked up the Left Fork of North Creek at Zion National Park. It had been awhile since I last visited this amazing product of nature formed by millions of years of erosion but it was well worth it. It’s a 10 mile hike requiring boulder hopping, numerous creek crossings and a 1,000 foot climb out of the canyon at the very end. I haven’t done much hiking this year and I felt it in my quads the next day.

Fall colors have arrived at Zion National Park’s North Creek

Now you know why they call it The Subway.

That fallen tree wasn’t there the last time.

The tall canyon walls that North Creek flows through.

A crack in the sandstone at Zion National Park’s Subway is a portal for the flowing water

Water, Water Everywhere – It Has A Twofold Effect At Zion National Park.

Seasonal rains have produced ephemeral falls along the canyon walls of Zion National Park, Utah. With these rains along with corona virus concerns, visitation at Zion has been squashed. Although the park hasn’t closed, visitor to employee contact has been reduced to almost zero as a result of management changes. Hopefully, the rest of the country will do the same in these times of uncertainty.

A Snowy Week At Zion National Park

We had anywhere from 7 to 10 inches this week so the fresh powder provided a contrast to the red rock architecture of Zion National Park.

Memories Of Peru

In The Country, Peru, Photography, Rivers, Seasons, Waterfalls

A good friend of mine is leaving for Peru today and I’ve told her all the must-see places to photograph. So I decided to post some images from my trip there 10 years ago. It’s quite a place that includes colorful landscapes and people. This first of five posts covers our trek to Machu Picchu via the Salkantay Trail

Our destination for this trek.

The bus leaves at 5am from Cuzco, bringing us to Mollepata, the beginning of the Salkantay Trail. The bus not only took us, but stopped along the road and picked any locals looking for a lift.
