About this Film:
Zion National Park — a landscape formed over 150 million years by geologic uplift and erosion — stands today as a place of refuge and sanctuary, a glimpse into history through millennia. From its past as home to the Ancestral Puebloans and their descendants, the Southern Paiutes, to the more recent history of Mormon settlement and its current status as a National Park, Zion has inspired countless visitors to pass between its red sandstone walls.
