ZION NATIONAL PARK & CORAL SANDS STATE PARK 6/10/2012



Such a nice surprise in the middle of the desert!


This is Coral Sands State Park in Utah.  Salmon-colored Sand Dunes Galore. 
There's camping and picnicking here....and *a lot* of sand!

Actually a nice little spot for a picnic.  Those trees are some kind of miniature oak tree.  And a lot of sagebrush, I guess, at least that's what it smelled like.  Not bad for the $6 entry fee.  And there's ALWAYS an entry fee!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh

The wind whipping through that break you can see in the mountains carries with it this sand.  I'm guessing this took a long time to form.  :)  This is off that neat Highway 89.  It was a fun first full day of sight seeing.
