Zion National Park, Utah - Watchman Campground - Oct 3 -7, 2013

Zion National Park encompasses some of the most scenic canyon country in the United States. High plateaus, a maze of narrow, deep, sandstone canyons and striking rock towers and mesas characterize the park.  Zion Canyon is the largest and most visited canyon in the park. The North Fork of the Virgin River has carved a spectacular gorge here, with canyon walls in most places rising 2000-3000 feet above the canyon floor. The southern part of the park is a lower desert area, with colorful mesas bordered by rocky canyons and washes. The northern sections of the park are higher plateaus covered by forests.  This is a great place to connect with the Lord and each other.  We will have devotions and a camp church service.  We will also have our own hikes that we will announce every evening for the next day.  Look forward to making new friends and enjoying God creation.
