Canyon Overlook （峽谷遠眺）:
Breathtaking view of lower Zion Canyon from Canyon Overlook in Zion National Park in Utah. The majestic
view includes the famous twists and turns of the Zion Switchbacks seen at the bottom of this picture, the
Beehives, West Temple, East Temple, Sundial, Altar of Sacrifice, Towers of the Virgin, hoodoos and the
Streaked Wall. An eye catcher is the large crown of rounded sandstone. This tuft of temple cap is the white
turbines of the Beehives. Zion monoliths are displayed in hues of red and white, crowded around the stark
white Beehives.
Another very impressive picture from Canyon Overlook can be seen at:

A picture of me (Sing Lin) at Canyon Overlook for breathtaking views of lower Zion Canyon, including Zion's
famous Switchbacks, the Beehives, West Temple, East Temple, Towers of the Virgin and the Streaked Wall in
Zion National Park. It required hiking on half-mile Canyon Overlook Trail and walking above the winding deep
narrow of Pine Creek to reach this fantastic Canyon Overlook on top of the Great Arch. The Trailhead is
located immediately east of the 1.1 mile long famous Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel by the ranger booth (i.e., east
portal of the Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel ). It begins with charming steps, carved into sandstone, that climb above
the Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel. The winding trail travels along the deep Pine Creek Canyon, a popular
canyoneering route and the Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel. In our April 2003 trip, I got on this Canyon Overlook Trail
to enjoy the awesome views from Canyon Overlook.
A more detailed description of this half-mile hiking trail to reach the Canyon Overlook with a trail map and 23
pictures along the trail is at the following web pages:

Magnificent view at Springdale, the South Entrance to Zion National Park.
In our April 2012 tour of eastern California, Nevada and Utah, we also got on a tour van in Las Vegas to tour
Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah on April 23, 2012. This is my second tour of Zion
National Park. My first tour was in early April 2003. My third tour was on May 22, 2017. Therefore, this web
page includes photos from my three tours in 2003, 2012 and 2017.

橫穿 Zion-Mt. Carmel 山脈的絕壁隧道長廊， 整條絕壁長廊蜿蜒盤旋，忽明忽暗，每隔一
段就會有鑿開的通風洞口，供你觀望洞外的奇特景致， 體會這雄壯奇偉的千仞懸崖絕壁景
觀， 實為天下一絕。
The hole at the lower part of the red rock cliff is one of several windows of the Zion-Mt. Carmel Tunnel that
bores through the hard rock inside the red rock cliff. These windows are called galleries to provide light and
ventilation through the canyon wall to the outside air. Highway 9 (UT-9, Zion-Mt. Camel Scenic Highway) in and
near Zion is beautiful on its own but this special tunnel with several windows on the cliff adds an extra treat! This
tunnel follows the profile of the deep Pine Creek Canyon wall at a consistent distance of 21 feet (6.4 m) from
the outside face of the rock to the centerline of the tunnel. The tunnel followed by the massive Switchbacks
takes visitors from a high plateau on east side down into the lower Zion Canyon on west side surrounded by
awesome views in every direction.
At the bottom of the switchbacks in the lower Zion Canyon, I took a movie scan of the awesome views as shown
in the following YouTube website:

Many bison (also known as the American buffalo) visible from Highway 9 at Zion Mountain Ranch. It is located
at 9065 West Highway 9, Mt Carmel, UT 84755 (junction of Highway 9 & Poverty Road) and is about 4 miles
east of East Entrance of Zion National Park.

The arch-shaped overhang on the orange east wall of Pine Creek Canyon. Canyon Overlook stands directly

峻山峽谷，峰體造型奇特，路一轉，山一迴，洞天之後，自是另一番光景。
On our return trip, we saw this female antelope (羚羊, also known as Pronghorn) on the roadside. After we
finished touring Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park, we drove on Highway 14 in Utah from
Long Valley Junction (Junction of Highways 89 and 14) to Cedar City to reach Interstate Highway I-15 to go to
Las Vegas. We saw this antelope while we were driving on Highway 14. This Highway 14 climbs the Cedar
Mountain up to 11,000 ft. in elevation and there were still some snow on roadside on May 24, 2017 at such
elevation. This area is the topmost rise of the geological Grand Staircase that starts from the bottom of the
Grand Canyon.
