It was another misty, rainy day in Zion National Park, UT, so we spent a lazy morning hunkered down in the coach. After lunch, it threatened to clear up and Sam was getting cabin fever, so we took a ride up the canyon. In the center of the picture below is the Great White Throne nearly obscured by the mist. Closer, and to the right is the little cousin to Angels Landing (it surely has a name - I just never learned it.)  At the far right is Angels Landing which I hope has no hikers on a day like this. Those rocks were bad enough dry - how slippery would they be in the rain?


At Canyon Junction, the North Fork of the Virgin River and the Watchman were, again, beautiful as the skies cleared enough to add some blue sky to the scene. I think I can say that even a rainy day in Zion is a beautiful day! 

The bridge at Canyon Junction always has a handful of photographers capturing this scene.
