Butterfly Trail, Snow Canyon


This week Sally and I headed to St. George for our annual winter convention. We started out Sunday afternoon. The weather was threatening but we lead the storm all the way down. Those behind us weren't as lucky they said the roads were bad. We pulled in Sunday evening and stayed at the Hampton it is a nice place. We woke to a storm and snow in S.G. not common but it cleared off by noon. We started out toward Veyo but ran into 4-5 inches of snow on the road, the folks that were with us didn't have 4WD so we turned back and went to the dinosaur tracks museum. Save your money and time, in fact go out searching for your own much funner. We left our friends there with there baby to look around and play inside. We went to Snow Canyon for a hike. We chose Butterfly trail an easy 2 miler with some great views and a lava tube that was cool. It took us a couple hours just meandering along and climbing around to go out and back. There was no one around absolute silence for the most part, it was nice. The breeze was chilling but when it didn't blow the sun felt great. We climb to the top of a "petrified sand dune" and sat and took in the views and took a couple pics. Then we saw the lava tube it was deep but not very long. We headed back after playing around there for a little bit and headed to the book store in the park not much there camp host was nice. Til next time Keep Smilin'
