It rained and hailed all morning. Went into Zion late and hiked Archeology Trail. Stopped at a couple of the pull outs like Checkerboard Mesa and a waterfall. It was a nice stormy day. Had Irish nachos (potato chips, cheese, pickles) and beer at the Zion Pub.

Today we were planning on spending a quiet day reading and relaxing until it started to get a little too windy to hang around camp. We decided to head over to the visitor center to learn more about this place…
