    Great place to visit-you might also take a trip to Bryce Canyon-well worth it also.

    Title says "many pictures". I count ten. No where near enough especially in that terrain during that season. I see RED rocks. GREEN trees and vegetation. WHITE snow. BLUE skies. There probably isn't a more beautiful place during the winter. Such a contrast.
    Good stuff and thanks for sharing.

    Beautiful place. The side of the mountain looks as if it's glowing in this photo:

    Looks like you went at the perfect time, breathtaking is the word I would use.

    Beautiful place, went there last time I was in Vegas. I would definitely go back and spend some time there.
