Save the Wilderness

Today I hiked in a remote wilderness area of Zion National Park.

 

In 2009 over 124,000 acres of Zion was designated as a wilderness. This designation insures that 84% of the Park will continues to be a place where nature is untrampled by humans, a place where people are visitors who do not remain. Wilderness is a rare place where one can retreat from civilization and reconnect with nature. Understanding and respect for these wild and undeveloped places will ensure that they remain spectacular for years to come.
