The beautiful Zion National Park, located in southwest Utah, is among the most visited National Parks in the United States. As the sun crests over the ridge in the morning, and as it dips below in the evenings, the red rocks bloom with color as each new layer is illuminated. In contrast, the rich green from the trees and foliage blanket the canyon floors, creating a welcoming that you can’t deny as it draws you in. Fresh, flowing water from the Virgin river and birds singing gives a background noise so peaceful it is hard to hold in your own smile. Yet, mother nature will playfully sink her claws into you before you have time to notice. Flooding and rock fall are a common occurrence, and often shut trails down. The narrows are a common site for drownings, and some trails are closed long term due to the damage sustained from the ground giving way. Mother Nature is a force, yet we risk our lives for the views at angels landing, and it is often by our own accord, that death comes knocking.
