ANOTHER ADDITION: Accidentally omitted in my closing comments and never personally hiked (until 2021) "OBSERVATION POINT." It is also one of the finest trails in Zion National Park with arguably the most impressive view. OBSERVATION POINT VIDEO: kzread.info/dash/bejne/o2uuttJwntbRotY.html. Here is ymy video for THE SUBWAY: kzread.info/dash/bejne/opVs0MelZJXUlbQ.html

Hello America's Park's, I've been to Zion 4 times but I'm missing some of those trails on the list. The trails that I have been to are my favorite The Narrows, followed by Angels Landing and still to this day I don't know how I was able to conquer those chains, but I just kept going and that view was SPECTACULAR! Other trails I have been to are Emerald Pools and another favorite the Canyon Overlook Trail, but I have hiked the Narrows more than any other trail. Next time I'm there I will hike Kolob Canyon as I have heard great reviews from my clients( I'm a travel agent specializing in road travel ). I would also like to continue west to Great Basin National Park and drive the Loneliest highway in America Hwy 50 to Lake Tahoe and onto Yosemite, but that's next time I'm in Utah.

The nice thing about Angels Landing is you can go up to the chain section (90% of the hike and still a great hike/view) and turn around if you feel uncomfortable regarding the chains. The hike takes some effort, but overcoming the heights is the biggie imho. Be safe!

IF you ever go back a fun day hike is ……. -WILD CAT CANYON T.H. to WEST RIM T.H. Then head south east on W.R to Potato Hollow then onwards to Cabin Spring. -From there you hike down past Scout’s Lookout to and past Angels Landing to the river. You jump Canyon Road to the Lodge. Catch the shuttle back to Springdale/Visitor’s Center. Awesome one way hike through some spectacular country.
