Hop Valley Snow

[cmgz]

Just a dayhike from Hop Valley to La Verkin Creek off the Kolob Terrace Road in Zion, 13 miles up and back. The weather changed and gave me such a treat. Sometimes bad weather has it's bright lining.

Short period where the skies cleared and the snow was sliding off the mountains.

One last view from the trailhead.

Love that last picture with the low rolling clouds. Thanks.

I love this shot with the snow settling in the cracks of the circular formation. Awesome report.

Nice. I feel Hop Valley is a very under appreciated trail in Zion but is one of my faves. Seeing it with that weather is neat. Thanks for sharing!

Zion always looks better with a little snow for contrast.

Great captures with great lighting @cmgz. I too loved the one with the cloud deck poring over the ridge.

The views from the top of the drop off into LaVerkin Creek were spectacular. That is a condition not many get to see. Thank you!

Awesome contract with the Zion red and the new white. Great micro TR.
Salud!
