Last snow.

Enter Zion National Park through the east gate and the first thing that meets the eye is Checkerboard Mesa at all of 6,670 feet elevation.

These eerie lines on the rock face seem man made but are anything but, being remnants from the ice age which saw giant glaciers cut through the rock. Here the last vestiges of snow are visible on the shady side in mid-March.
