Zion National Park and Dixie National Forest

We spent the day at Zion National Park and drove back through Dixie National Forest on our way back to the campground in Hatch. We experienced every type of weather today, sunny morning; high winds and rain after lunch; heavy snow in the late afternoon on our way home.
