Nancy and I left St. George, UT by 7:30am and headed straight for Zion National Park.  We hadn't been to Zion in many years and it would be nice to visit the park again, especially at a time of the year that draws less visitors.  We spent most of the morning photographing the park and then headed to another favorite place of ours---the Coral Pink Sand Dunes.   The dunes aren't as spectacular as some of the other dunes we had visited, but their coral pink color is rather unique, especially since they were partially covered with a fresh blanket of white snow.  From there we were basically on our way home but we still had one more special photo opportunity ahead of us---the Utah canyon land area west of the Green River Area.  We lingered in this area until well after sunset enjoying the ever changing shadows and colors of the setting sun filtering through the rugged mesas, buttes, and canyons.  A great ending to a fantastic 10 days!
