After the snow storm
In 2019, I finally had some time around Thanksgiving to photograph Zion National Park. It meant a lot to me because Zion is such a beautiful place that I just didn't have time to visit. I made some plans beforehand, including doing the two most famous hikes, Angel's Landing and the Narrows, there and I even brought waterproof bag for the adventure. However, an unexpected snowstorm completely changed our plan. The snow caused most part of the main canyon to close during our visit, and the shuttle bus could only take us to its first four stops. So we had to adjust to the condition and do something else.
After some research, we decided to try the Sand Bench trail, because it was still reachable by the shuttle bus, and not so hard to hike in the snow. The best part of this trail is that you get very close to some giant peaks, and the snowy condition just added so much more atmosphere to the view. Glad I chose this trail.
