Zion has a lovely trail to a series of pools known as the Emerald Pools, where maidenhair ferns and other unusual plants for a desert inhabit this wet niche. Unfortunately, the middle pool trail was closed due to a rock slide, but the trail to the lower pool was easy and along the Virgin River for awhile, before heading up a small side canyon. I managed to capture the small waterfall, which was a refreshing cascade about 50-75 feet high.
After shopping in the visitor center, we headed back to Cedar City, stopping at the Walmart for the promised memory foam for Helen. Her bed is now another four inches taller.
Tomorrow, we head westward to Nevada as far as we can travel, although we are stopping along the way at Cathedral Gorge.
