I specifically chose wintertime for my last holiday in Utah and Zion, hoping for an acceptable amount of snow and beautiful views and scenery. Did I get what I hoped for...
I already wrote some trip reports, however in this post I show some of the best pictures (in my opinion) of many other days during my holiday. Hiking in Zion, exploring area's I hadn't been to before, finding area's I'll return to in non-winter conditions... (thanks to Bo and Tanya for their written support :2thumbs:) Zion is such a different world in wintertime...


Anyway, I'll give each picture a short comment with more information about location or something. Hope you dont mind that I make this short summary of several trips. And too bad that the panorama pictures are shown only this small...... :roll:

Stunning pictures, Maarten. :2thumbs: I also like Zion (and indeed all S Utah) at that time of year.
