"Bryce National Park and Zion National Park are less the 2 hours from each other. You could easily stay the 2nd night at your less expensive Bryce hotel and wake up early on Day 6 to make the drive to Zion National Park."

"What Makes It Epic: Arguably the most famous hike in Zion National Park. Sheer drops of up to 1,000 feet on either side of a narrow sandstone trail make it a must for adrenaline junkies. Length: 4.8 miles round trip from the trailhead to the top of Angel’s Landing, 1,500 feet above the canyon floor"

"Rising 1,500-feet above the floor of Zion Canyon, Angels Landing offers stunning, 360-degree views in the heart of the park. The only challenge is getting there. From The Grotto Shuttle Stop (#6), the Angels Landing Trail heads 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) to the summit."

"5 miles round-trip from The Grotto trailhead, 1630 feet of elevation gain. Be warned that there are some sections of exposure and people have died hiking this trail. Angel’s Landing is in the main canyon and requires a shuttle to access from spring-fall."

"A hike doesn’t quite cut it – this is an adventure that will have you wading through ankle-deep (sometimes waist-deep) river passages, jumping in sandstone swimming pools and doing the odd bit of rock scrambling. This is Zion’s most popular slot canyon hike. You can either start at the Riverside Walk at the Temple of Sinawava and go from the bottom up, or from the Chamberlain Ranch and go from the top down if you want the full canyoneering experience."

"Spend your second day in the park exploring The Narrows. They are continually changing and are one of the top highlights of Zion National Park, especially if you visit in the warmer months. This is a great hike to keep you cool as much of the hike you’ll be wading through a river. Check out our Narrows hiking guide for more information."

"Zion National Park has a couple of famous hikes like Angels Landing and the Narrows. Angels Landing is a strenuous and steep hike to reach the lookout over Zion Canyon. The Narrows treks through the Virgin River and is open only when the water levels and current are safe. Unfortunately, it was closed when I went."

"Kanab's most famous attraction is outside of town. Surrounded by more than 33,000 mostly private acres of red-rock desert 5.5 miles north of Kanab, Best Friends is the largest no-kill animal rescue center in the country. The center shows films and gives facility tours four times a day; call ahead for times and reservations.

"In Mt Carmel, the Architectural Digest–noted Maynard Dixon Living History Museum is where renowned Western painter Maynard Dixon (1875–1946) lived and worked in the 1930s and ’40s. Docent-led tours are by appointment only. Look for the house at Mile 84 on Hwy 89 (called State St in town), about 6 miles south of Glendale; it’s easy to miss."

"Prime steak and fresh seafood are surely the most requested entrees at Switchback Grille, though they have an extensive menu including many other mouthwatering choices.
