At Home in Chicago: On the Road: Zion and Bryce

It is our fourth day on the road. We have traded Chicago heights for the heights around America`s south west. It feels good to be in the nature, although hiking in the US national parks is different than in the Swiss Alps or Estonian wetlands, where you hardly ever meet another person on the trails. However, the breathtaking views compensate for the idiots on the way and if one is fit and fast enough, one can hike away from them. Especially cool are the numerous wild life all over the places. Of course one can ask if they are really wild anymore, now that they are almost ready to attack people to get food out of them, but they make great posing models as you can see below.
