Zion Narrows

Here are some pictures of my hike through the ZIon narrows. More than 60% of the hike was in the river and the walls on both sides were over 2000 feet tall in places....Sorry for all the repeats, the lighting made it difficult to get good shots, and I really didn't have time to edit them all out.

Observation Point and more Zion

It rained hard last night meaning that the canyon I was planning to backpack through got flooded. Fortunately the forecast looks much better for tomorrow, and if I can get another permit, I'll head out then. Instead I hiked up to observation point, which provides one of the best views of Zion Canyon and a fantastic view of Angels Landing. Here are the pics.....

Grand Canyon Rim to River and Back

Here are the pics from the grand canyon hike, it was just awesome. I've written several extensive blog entries about it, but they're on paper so I'll try and type them up and post them in increments starting tonight.
