Springtime in Zion

Lush Desert

Hello fellow Steemians! It's been a little while, I haven't been taking as many photos because I've been setting up plans/work for the rest of the year but I'm happy to report that I just got back from an awesome road trip through the American Southwest and can't wait to share the photos you!

I've never explored much of the desert in the US but seeing it in springtime was the right move, the crowds were low and the scenery was way more lush and beautiful than I was anticipating. I almost couldn't believe my eyes when we drove into Zion. You hear stories about a place but nothing prepares you for actually being there.

This is one of the classic views in Zion National Park and the mountain in the back is called The Watchman. It towers over everything on this side of the park. It had been raining off and on with some snow here and there so all of the trees and shrubbery was as green as it gets. Truly a sight to see, especially in the desert.

I hope you guys are having a fantastic weekend and I look forward to sharing the rest of the photos from this trip with you!
