	Hasn't voted	Thanks Anya! There is nothing like being called pretty after sweating your way up a hike :) It's pretty there in Echo Canyon and I wanted to see what all this snow had done to it. It just made it all the prettier!

	Hasn't voted	Thanks Charles. We hiked up to the Echo Canyon exit just to see how much drainage it was getting. It's going to be a wild year for canyoneering in Zion with all this snow this year!

The contrast is nice...

The best thing I like about SNOW is
watching it melt. What does the younger
generation think about all this snow?
Patience. It will all melt soon enough.
I was just wondering if Lake Powell will
fill up this year. That would be nice!

	Hasn't voted	On this trail... there was so much snow on the mountainsides... and broken LARGE rocks all over the trails.. the sun was hitting the top side of the mountain --- talk about melt?!?! It's going to hit that trail and make quite the mess! I bet the lake will actually.

That is a really amazing looking photgraph. Looks like your standing on glass, or walking on water.

	Hasn't voted	It is really nice. Bo did a good job. There is rock under that and a thin layer of water is flowing. Just pass that it was accumulating in a very awesome looking pool.
