2021 National Parks – Day 7 – Zion NP

After a great night’s sleep in a quiet campsite at Bryce Canyon NP.

Waking in a cold Bryce Canyon NP, we had a warm camp breakfast, packed up our campsite quickly and head out to Zion NP. After the spectacular drive into Zion, the Subaru circled and circled and circled the lot at the Visitors Center until a parking spot opened up right in front of us.

A quick visit to the shop for stickers and such and onto the bus so that we could walk out to the Narrows. With Cyanobacteria still in the Virgin River we were opting to keep dry. It is beautiful non the less.

A visit to the Lodge at Zion for lunch preceded a drive to the Kaibab Lodge just outside of the Grand Canyon NP – North Rim. There we had a light diner.

The rest of the evening was taking inventory of our supplies, organizing, charging up our batteries and cleaning up after a warm day in Zion.

Surprisingly, there is neither cell service nor Wi-Fi at the Kaibab Lodge. It’s totally off grid.
