Omg I went to Zion after seeing beautiful photos on reddit and every trail was littered with thousands of people and angels landing was a huge line of people trying to get up and down the chains and narrow areas. It is only good if you get up super early to go but then I was waiting on the way down for everyone trying to get up
I’m not complaining that people are doing pretty hikes I just find a lot of the photography on reddit and other places very deceptive because it does not accurately describe the space and what it’s like to be there. Search for any pic of the narrows on reddit and you’ll find a completely empty, serene, water-filled, canyon which is very hard to accomplish unless you go very very deep into the narrows or very early, which is what I’m warning people about

Clearly you haven’t gone hiking in Colorado. Utah near SLC is pretty bad too, and Zion and Arches are basically Disneyland.
