Day 012a: Can You Hear Me Now?

My server at dinner last night, Rich, was well-versed in dispersed camping on the south side. He suggested a road — washed out in only a couple places — that led to a high bluff above the valley. The camping spots were small and awkward but the place was deserted and provided me all the mobile bandwidth I could eat.

Today’s plan was to knock out some of the short/famous/popular hikes in the main canyon: Riverside Walk, Weeping Rock, Emerald Pools. I was initially skeptical of Zion’s mandatory-during-the-busy-season shuttle system but it actually worked really well. Look at all the cars it kept out of the park:
