Large Engleman spruce predominate in the forest cover, which, bal--, also- - includes white fir or earn, alpine fir, and bristle6one (foxtall) pine. There is one large bristlecone pine on the rim estimated to be over 2,000 years old. Typical timberline on porvegetation is to be seen mid-July tions of the rim. In the flowers begin to bloom and masses of large white columbine. blue bonnets, and larkspur make a fine display. Back from the rim, hidden in the trees, the Utah Parks Company, has provided a comfortable lodge with an attractive dining robm, lobby and rest rooms. are Sleeping accommodations available in cabins operated in connection with the lodge at the CAMPING AVAILABLE A public camp ground is main- tained where water, fireplaces and fuel are cooking furnish. ed. The season of accessibility varies with weather conditions, . is usually from early June first of November. Ou account of the high altitude, snows persist until late spring. Brian Head, the highest.' point in this area, elevation 11,315 feet, located in the Dixie National Forest, four miles from the north entrance, is reached over a fair road. other accommodations Any required may be obtained in Cedar City, where rates also are quite reasonable. but to the A very interesting and informative release explaining the origin and distinctive features of Zion Canyon has been issued by the National Park Service after tensive studies'and investigation, and terms the canyon the example of a deep, narrow. vertically walled chasm readily accessible for observation. Zion Canyon, says, is througt much of Itsit-i- course, -about as deep as s widethough, in the narrows it Is 2,000 feet deep and less 'than 50 feet wide. On ita floor Is an automobile highway, continued upstream by trails. WAS NO CANYON THEN The canyon was made by the North Fork of Virgin River, the stream which now flows through It. It is not a crack in the earth's crust or a gorge scooped out by glacier ice and conveniently Placed to serve as 'a runway for only incidentally concerned with the detailed carving that makes Zion Canyon unique. The walls are retreating in con. sequence of ground water which emerges as springs and seeps, of its present walls duplicate the Meanders of the stream when it flowed some 5,000 feet above its level. Present For many thousand years' the Virgin and its tributaries have been busy with two tasks: namely, deepening their channels and .transporting material weathered from the canyon walls. At present the Virgin 'carries away from the park each year about 3,000,000 tons of groundup rock at an average rate of 186 carloads a day. For such a work, the many branched Virgin seems incompetent. But though relatively small- in volume, the release continues. this stream system falls nearly 70 feet to the mile (nine times the fall of the Colorada in Grand Canyon) and is at work on rock, chiefly sandstone, that disintegrates with exceptional ease. Many tributaries are on bare rock, little retarded by vegetation, and are fed by short but violent showers. Consequently, they are brought to flood stage not only seasonally. but with each period of heavy rainfall. Because they flow only in response to showers. the smaller tributaries are unable to cut channels as deep as the Perennial master i stream. From their mouths high on the canyon wallsrthey descent as waterfalls. Though they are primarily responsible for the depth and position of the canyons, the Virgin Itself and the other streams bead-- trig on the adjoining plateaus are ' 0 through the private development Mt - f4-utilities en route.
