Abstract

Zion National Park is located in southwestern Utah at the junction of three geographic regions: the Mojave Desert, the Great Basin, and the Colorado Plateau. This unique geography creates distinctive habitats in Zion. With the Virgin River running through the middle of the park, Zion is a refuge for plants, animals, and humans as well.
