Zion: Emerald Pools

A paved path leads one to this large alcove with water dripping down the rock and collecting into pools that take on a greenish hue, and hence their name the Emerald Pools. (This is only the lower pool, as the trail was under construction and we could not continue farther to the other ones.) The popularity (and ease of access) made it tricky to get a shot that wasn't filled with people, but here's what we could get.
(Credit where it's due: My wife took this one with her camera.)





Finally, you can see the pool that is actually "emerald"--or emerald-ish.

On the walk back down the trail.
