This was the first time exploring Snow Canyon State Park (one of my favorite places in the United States!) after rain. I went specifically looking for pools after a day of rain – the lifeline for animals and insects in the desert. It was a wandering, meandering type of day, not specifically hiking, but taking time to just notice reflections and angles and tiny footprints in the sand. Mindfulness.
I also stopped at a lookout far above Snow Canyon, looking down onto the incredible canyon with fantastic views of the magical rock formations that make up this beautiful place.
