800 Feet / by Dave Hileman

At the upper end of the canyon at Zion National Park, just a few yards down the trail to the Narrows, is a view you do not get most of the year while visiting Zion. The heavy snow pack had waterfalls up and down the valley but none of them were has high nor as powerful as this one. The rangers said it was at least 800 feet, that is an 80 story building, and was rapidly filling the Virgin River that runs through the canyon. We were so fortunate this spring to encounter the majesty of Zion with a unique opportunity to see several tall and mighty falls.
