New Photos – Kolob Cayons in Fall
My lovely wife, Emily and I visited the Kolob Canyons region of Zion national park again in October, 2008. I finally posted a few of my favorite photos from that trip. The image above shows Beartrap Falls with a backdrop of brilliant fall color.
Beartrap Falls is located in Beartrap Canyon, a narrow side canyon that joins the La Verkin creek canyon upstream from the Hop Valley trail junction. Beartrap canyon receives little if any direct sunlight during this part of the year, and temperatures inside can be an easy 10-15°F below those of the main canyon. Even standing at the mouth of the canyon, you can often feel a breath of frigid air blowing off the shadowy creek.
You can view this photo and a few others from this trip in the Kolob Canyons section of the gallery.
The blog looks great, Sam! I added you to my blog list on RooksPaperScissors, so I’ll know whenever you update your site.
I can’t wait to explore your site more, and we all can’t wait to see you and Auntie Em…
Hey Sam,
Those are some sweet photos. I want to make it out there to Zion sometime. I particularly dig your Yosemite in the snow images.
Sam,
We are a video production company in Southern Utah. We are interested using one of your photos to show off the fall colors of Kolob Canyons. Please contact us as soon as possible.
