Great information about the outdoors, beautiful pictures and occasionally there are opportunities to win trips to other natural wonders around the country and world. Did you know there are typically 2-3 days each year that all national parks are free to the public? Also during the slow season you can drive your car into Zion’s National Park without having to ride the tram system. St. George is less than an hour away from the entrance. If you’re paying attention you just may spot the ostrich farm on the right side of the road on your way there.

“I Have a Dream”
December signals the beginning of a quieter time in the park with fewer visitors and increased opportunities for solitude. Due to decreased visitation, some services will be reduced or ended for the winter season. The voluntary shuttle service that provides transportation to the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive on weekends in November has ended operations for the season. The Zion Canyon Shuttle and the Springdale Shuttle will resume regular service on April 1, 2012. For visitors interested in spending the night in the park this winter, the Watchman Campground and Zion Lodge are open year-round. During a trip, the public is encouraged to visit the Zion Canyon Visitor Center for information on park activities and trail conditions. This facility is staffed from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily.
