• Climbing To The Top Of Checkerboard Mesa

  

  Checkerboard Mesa is located on the Eastside of Zion National Park and offers outstanding views. Fall colors are popping as well.     Fall colors along the route. Lots of bushwacking required.     East entrance at upper right.

• Zion’s Checkerboard Mesa Is A Natural Phenomenon

  Produced from millions of years of erosion and cross bedding of the soft sandstone layers, Zion National Park’s Checkerboard Mesa is a natural geologic feature.  One visitor to the park asked me if it was man made, probably because they couldn’t comprehend how nature could offer this. No stucco here!
