The Court of the Patriarchs Viewpoint is just a short walk from the shuttle stop, making it one of the most accessible viewpoints in Zion National Park.
The sandstone formations at the Court of the Patriarchs are estimated to be around 150 million years old, dating back to the Jurassic period.
From the viewpoint, you can also see Mount Moroni, another striking formation named after a figure from the Book of Mormon.
The early morning light casts a warm glow on the peaks, making it an ideal time for capturing stunning photographs.
