Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uhamba emigwaqweni eyihlane ekubuyiseleni noma ubambelele ekukhangeni okukhulu kwepaki, isipiliyoni sakho eZiyoni ngeke sibe yinto ejwayelekile.
Umlando
Kunzima ukukholelwa ukuthi i-Zion's canyon empeleni yayisetshenziswa izigidi ezidabukile zeminyaka edlule.

I-canyon ngokwayo yasungulwa eminyakeni eyizigidi edlule ngenxa yamanzi agelezayo athuthukisa i-sandstone ukwakha izindonga ezinkulu esizibonga namuhla.
Eminyakeni engaba ngu-12 000 eyedlule, iSiyoni yamukela izakhamuzi zayo zokuqala. Abantu balandela futhi bazingela ama-mammoth, ama-giant sloth, namakamela ayevamile kule ndawo. Kodwa ukushintsha kwesimo sezulu nokudlulela kwaholela ekuqothulweni kwalezi zilwane eminyakeni engaba ngu-8 000 edlule.
