Zion National Park, is it more spooky or spiritual than other parks? Why is it called Zion?

In episode 5, Dan & Cass cover Zion National Park's history of Indigenous people, the lay of the land, and how this land was absconded by the Mormon people and thus the National Park system. As well as a story of climbing gone wrong in the park. With this park having some of the most daring trails that may not be the best starting place for beginners, and unforgiving quickly changing weather, there's still so much it has to offer to people at all levels of their nature loving journey.
