After leaving a snowy Park City behind, and a five-hour drive, it was nice to get out of the car and stretch our legs on the Grotto and Emerald Pools Trail — Zion National Park, Utah.
The trails are pretty easy, with the Emerald Pool trail proving the more challenging. The walk was only about 3 miles (ca. 5 km) and took about 90 minutes. It was worth the effort as it gave some stunning views.
In the wet season, the waterfalls are supposed to be spectacular.
