Emerald Pools
Jun. 11th, 2011 12:29 pmMidday at Zion on day 2. The trail to lower Emerald Falls is paved, and not too strenuous.

After leaving the parking lot, it crosses the virgin river.

The falls come over a rock ledge that curves around, with the trail underneath.
Then you climb a bit, and come to Middle Emerald Pool, which is a small wet area on the rock ledge that is Lower Emerald Falls. From there you walk upward a ways, and come to Upper Emerald Falls.
