Viewing posts tagged by the river
Sacramento, a city (actually, two cities) along the Sacramento and American river, is the capital of the state of California.
Zion National Park, the next stop on our tour. Most of the trails weren't fully accessible. The open parts (except the Pa'rus trail) were quite slippery. The Riverside Walk was closed at half of the way due to fallen ice, so no access to the narrows. But the open part of it was very scenic and nice. The emerald pools hikes were extremely slippery, so we never got to the pools, but the view into the valley was great. Finally, being fed up with snow, we took the Pa'rus trail along the Virgin river near the visitor center. Very different vegetation, and no snow.
