See the park from unique viewpoints - glide over Bryce Amphitheater in a hot-air balloon, then go down into the canyon on a trail ride. Find out from Ranger Maggie McGee about the ancient geological forces that created "hoodoos," the park's famous towers, pinnacles and eerie statues of stone. In Zion National Park, explore magnificent Zion Canyon and hike its strenuous switchback trails. Visit Checkerboard Mesa, Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel, Kolob Arch and the Great Arch of Zion. See Zion through the eyes of early explorers and settlers in photos and dramatic reenact-ments, and then visit the Paiute Indian Clifford Jake, who will tell you how his forefathers “got songs from the mountains, the wind and the eagle."
