Snow Canyon State Park - AWESOME

Hey KW, we are off to the Snow Canyon State Park.




Butterfly Canyon Trail.








Petrifed Dunes Trail.












Hey tour guide, what is that spec on that rock?


Oh, it's Mrs. tour guide.


We are rocking the rocks in Snow Canyon.




KW, turn around and listen to me.




Mrs. tour guide getting lunch out.


Lava Flow Trail.






Holy hole in the ground tour guide, I think we found the Bat Cave.










We ain't afraid of no lava.


Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?  The shadow knows.

PS:

Snow Canyon is named after early Mormon settlers Lorenzo and Erastus Snow.  It was designated as a Utah State Park in 1958.  Snow Canyon State Park features a canyon carved from the red and white Navajo sandstone in the Red Mountains.  The park is located near Ivins, Utah and St George in Washington County.  Other geological features of the state park include extinct cinder cones, lava tubes, lava flows, and sand dunes.  The highest point in the park, according to a U. S. Geological Survey topographical map, is a peak 5,024 feet in elevation nearly due west of the southern cinder cone, standing above the eastern edge of the east fork of Snow Canyon.
