Zion is one of my favorite national parks. During my first visit there in 1999 we were still able to ride our bikes to the end of the road in the canyon, but the traffic was awful. It is much better now that private vehicles are not allow during the busy months. A large group of us have stayed at the lodge in the park in late January a couple of times, and that is my favorite time of the year. Back then there were almost no people there in January and we felt as if it was truly "our park." Just awesome!
I agree with you about the ride through the park's high country, through the tunnel, over to Mt. Carmel Junction, with sights that are out of this world. Last trip on a bike was in 2011; attached a couple of photos below. Hope to do it again in the future.
Thanks for sharing and bringing back great memories!!!
