Day 100: January 3, 2005 - Snow Capped Mountain, Foggy Valley

by Christian Williams

I spent this foggy morning taking pictures in East Zion. As I traveled toward the tunnel into Main Canyon, I stopped to take in the view of this twisting canyon with snow capped Bridge Mountain in the background.

On my way home the fog rolled in to cover most of Long Valley, the area a few miles east of Zion National Park. The dreamy beauty of this scene had to be captured. Although not technically in Zion National Park, the mountains of this area also are spectacular, with a similar geology.

Day 34: October 29, 2004 - Panorama

by Karen Williams

This panorama is six photographs put together. This breathtaking view along Highway 9 grabbed my attention on my way home from Zion. Long Valley is technically not in Zion, but is instead right near our home. This is the view I fell in love with, the first time I drove to a job interview in a small Utah town that became my home.

This dried yucca plant had interesting shapes and textures that contrasted nicely with the blue sky.
