When hiking in Zion National Park, it’s possible to spot wildlife, including mountain goats (top); petroglyphs carved into rock
surfaces by the Fremont people, nomadic hunter-gatherers who lived in the region between 7,000 and 500 BC, can still be
seen in Capitol Reef National Park (above); Zion National Park’s slot canyons (right) are the perfect destinations to try out or
learn some new canyoneering skills. Jane rix/
