Great Little Town

Kanarraville, Utah, is a very small town in the foothills of the Kanarra Mountains.  Two very different hiking trails are a favorite weekend family spot for the locals.  Springcreek Trail winds into a canyon as it follows a narrow mountain stream.

Kanarra Falls Trail also winds into a canyon and the hiker is treated to two water falls at the very end, and even a little snow on the top.

Taylor Creek Trail, which is part of Kolob Canyon and Zion National Park surprised us because it isn't a main attraction of Zion, but it was close (just six miles away from our campsite) so we had nothing to lose and, as it turned out, a whole lot of beautiful hiking to gain.

A homesteaded cabin from the 1930's still stands along the trail.

While looking for fishing holes we discovered the small town of Parowan, which is known for petroglyphs and dinosaur tracks.

We searched all around the hillside next to the sign reading 'Dinosaur Tracks', determined to find one to show our grandkids.  What do you think kids?  An antasaurus, the duck-billed dinosaur?

Oh, did Jerry find a fishing hole? Yup!
