The Snowbird rate doesn't start till Nov. first :(( <br /><br />Zion's campgrounds are great, but we discovered that they are so close to the mountain that this time of the year the sun doesn't really come up soon enough for us, that and it's chilly. That's why we always camp west of Zion, in Virgin... either at the RV Resort, or boon docking. I Love the early sun it gets... and the late sun too. There are a couple of boon docking spots near there if you need one... call or email. <br />And glad to hear we are not missing the fall show!<br />thanks, we leave in a few hours for Moab country. I hope Goldie is an oldie but goodie.<br />mark and bobbieBox Canyon Blog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07032055509766739436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205527982714514361.post-56942843981832590292012-10-18T21:06:57.555-06:002012-10-18T21:06:57.555-06:00Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon, they are all special pl...Zion, Bryce, Grand Canyon, they are all special places if people slow down enough to enjoy the NOW.<br /><br />When visitors ask me which is my favorite park, I always answer with the one I'm at.<br /><br />The colors are awesome there while ours is just about gone.
