    I visited in 2009, on a sunny and unusually hot day in April. I had been volunteering at Best Friends animal sanctuary about 30 miles from Zion, and did a day trip over to Zion. This park is like no other place on earth that I've seen. Southern Utah, overall, to me is the most beautiful place in the country.

    We were able to visit Zion on our retirement vacation in September of 2021. We came in from the east, but what a stunning drive! It took us over 2 hours to get to Springdale, stopping to take pictures!

    Amazing. That. Is. Just. Insane! I have never been to Zion national park before! That was just awesome! The snow and everything, slow music, apart from rock and roll, electronic, and dubstep which is usually heard in road videos! I am so excited to see the rest of your epic journey!

      I've been. This video is amazing, but nothing beats the real thing. If this took your breath away, imagine what seeing it in person will do?

    Thank you for such a beautiful video. So nice to see Zion with the winter snow. We will be traveling there in Oct. and are looking forward to seeing all of the national parks. The music was so peaceful, beautiful, and relaxing. I am going to play this when having a stressful day at the job. :) Thank you again for all the effort you put into making this amazing video!

    • @AmericanRoads
      @AmericanRoads  9 лет назад +1

      You definitely need to see these areas in person, Dude. Besides UT-9, the 122-mile long UT-12 (Scenic Byway 12) is also my favorite.

    Thank you for all your videos and for bringing back good memories from our trip in the southwest!

    • @AmericanRoads
      @AmericanRoads  9 лет назад

      I, too, enjoy reliving my winter vacation memories with these videos. Even though it was only three months ago, I already miss this place! How long ago were you in the southwest?

    • @chriss948
      @chriss948 9 лет назад

      We were there in May 2014, so snow there, but really nice too. Wish I have had a better camera to record the trip. Your videos look great! Best greetings from Germany!

    • @AmericanRoads
      @AmericanRoads  9 лет назад

      Chris S Sadly, not all my videos will be available in your country. For some reasons, Germany loves to block so many songs. And since I always put songs in my videos, there is a high possibility that these videos will be blocked in Germany.
      Hopefully, I could find more "Germany-safe" songs, so you can watch more of Utah.

    • @chriss948

      +Jason Rodriguez You absolutely will NOT regret it. Keep a tire chain handy. It is not required and paved roads inside the park are plowed and cleared of snow all the time. But still, just in case.

    Great trip! Seems that there was little snow. Is it always in winter there?

    • @AmericanRoads
      @AmericanRoads  9 лет назад

      No, it is not. It can be quite hot in the summer here. Not mention the much higher number of visitors too.

    Do you have any videos on your camera setup?

    • @AmericanRoads
      @AmericanRoads  5 лет назад +1

      Unfortunately, no. However, I do have a photo of it: facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153798879537634&l=fb07b1e7bb.
      Let me know if you are able to see it. A couple things I want to pay attention in that photo:
      1. The black cloth on the dashboard, to prevent glares of the dashboard from showing up on the camera.
      2. The bungee cord tied around the tripod, to keep the tripod from tipping over as the car moves.

    I've never understood why someone would go zipping through Zion National Park. if you go there, slow down and enjoy the scenery. Don't be like that guy that was sniffing the rear end going up the Mount Carmel Highway. Utah Highway 9 is a scenic route, not an interstate highway!
