We know that we are too late to get into the state park campsite, so we end up in a very functional, but completely soulless RV site a few miles away from the park. Admittedly we arrive late and leave early, but we don't talk to a single other camper.
We solve this problem the next day by arriving at the State camp ground at 6.30 am and being first in the queue (by a significant margin) for one of the first come first served spots! As we were wandering around the site trying to figure out where to park we talk to 6 different sets of people. This is more like it! The RVs and tents are all mixed together which makes for a very convivial atmosphere.
We spend the first day at Zion orientating ourselves, taking the shuttle bus up and down the canyon and doing a couple of the gentle hikes. It's warm and sunny, the scenery is beautiful, we're really looking forward to the next couple of days.
