The sun sets on another scorching July day at Zion Canyon in southern Utah. Actually the weather was pleasant at this vantage point on Kolob Terrace at 7,000 foot elevation. Down in the canyon temperatures reached 110 degrees during our stay.
Winter snowmelt and runoff from summer rains is soaked up by the sandstone and literally "weeps" from the walls, staining the red sandstone with mineral laden deposits. Here I layed down on my back to capture the towering walls.
