It’s day number 3 and the real road trip was about to begin. After a short and simple breakfast we left our hotel room and drove to St. George, Utah. Today’s destination was going to be the Zion National Park, including a detour to the Yant Flat, also known as Candy Cliffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before we really started, we had to visit another Walmart, afterall, we didn’t have a tent yet… But just like on Saturday, we were still out of luck. They only had the big tents for up to 12 people, but those were way to big for us. From the previous year I knew, that there is a Walmart on the SR 9 near Zion. We visited that one on the late afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To get to Leeds (a few miles after St. George) we had to drive the Interstate 15 (I-15). The first part in Nevada is quite unintersting, but once you get into Arizona the landscape changes drastically: You’ll be driving through a Canyon following the Virgin River. For being a highway it’s a really beautiful road.<\/p>\n\n\n
