My virtual tour of St. George
It is one of the fastest growing cities in the US with very affordable housing. There is a great deal of Mormon history including the oldest functioning Mormon Temple. There is also some amazing scenery...
St. George Scenery
Virgin River Gorge
You don't even have to get off the freeway to enjoy the scenery of the Virgin River Gorge.Just south of St. George on I-15 is the Gorge. You might have a hard time keeping your eyes on the road because of the surrounding scenery.
Virgin River Gorge
Zion's National Park
Zions National Park is Utah's oldest and most visited national park. It is also one of the most accessible parks in the country since it's less than an hour away from St. George.It also has some breathtaking scenery. My favorite hike is Angel's Landing, pictured here. At the top of this five mile hike is a 360 degree view of the entire park.
(As you can see this is a strenuous hike and not recommended for those afraid of heights.)

As a Mormon, I was in Utah in 1968 in the North Ogden area. Then I returned in 1977 to visit relatives for awhile. I couldn't get used to no trees and the beautiful greenery we have in New England though. I just don't like the desert, and not being able to take day drives out in the "country".
