We flew to Las Vegas Nevada on April 30, and after a couple of days exploring the glitter and glamour of the city, rented a car and started on a tour of seven (7) national parks in Southern Utah and Northern Arizona. We concluded the trip in Phoenix, AS and flew home on May 24th.
Each park is presented on it's own page and accessed through the links below. At the bottom of this page are a few pictures of Las Vegas.
Click For>Zion Canyon National Park [Utah]*** towering, fortress rocks in a deep canyon cut by the Virgin river. While the Grand Canyon experience is mostly looking down, Zion is mostly looking up to varicolored monoliths.
Click For>Bryce Canyon National Park [Utah]*** a gorgeous amphitheatre of wiggly, melting, red and white rocks, with stunning walks above and below the rim.
