167. Zion National Park: Cathedral of the Desert

Travel with Johnny Mac to the majestic sandstone corridors of Zion, where thousand-foot cliffs create nature's most dramatic cathedral. Discover how to navigate this increasingly popular park like a pro, from securing permits for the heart-pounding Angels Landing hike to wading through the cool waters of The Narrows slot canyon. Learn the best times to visit for fewer crowds, where to find hidden gems beyond the main canyon, and how to capture those postcard-perfect photographs.
