It all started about 10 years ago when I went to a family reunion in southren Utah and visited Zion's and Bryce National Parks. I loved the red cliffs and rock formations and I was told that you could backpack through incredible canyons. I really wanted to do that, but never got around to it. Then my brother Kevin sent me an email telling me that they had planned a trip and wondering if anyone in our family wanted to join them. So Landon and I packed up and drove 11 hours to St George and met Chad, Kevin, Justus, Marion, Travis, Dallin, Becca, Renae, Matt, Lance, Matt Pruitt, and Jake (our fearless guide who had done the trip before) and we had an amazing experience that we will not forget!
We hiked Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, slept under the stars and a very full moon...I almost wanted to ask someone to turn out the light!
Cooked great meals on our little propane stoves.
This is a huge blockage caused by flash floods. We had to take off our packs to climb over and down. It was much steeper than it looks.
