We found about 3 extra hours, and since we wanted to visit Zion this summer anyway, we snuck it into our trip now.
Thoughts on the park: if you have the time and can come in off I-89 do it! Take the time to wind across the park, the beauty of the red rock is intense and the rock face changes enough that it always stays interesting. There are also hieroglyphics if you are looking closely enough that will catch your eye.
If you have no time, bounce in off I-15, park in the Visitors Center and hop on the shuttle, ride up and down to each of the stops and learn a brief overview of the park, there is a recording that plays as the shuttle rolls along to all the stops giving you the history of the park the Mormon settlers and the stories associated with all of the stops if you have time get off and roam around, if not keep going.
We made it to the Weeping Rock stop - two from the top before we had to turn back. It was quick, interesting and informative.
