What an epic road trip we took this summer to Utah!
This was a once in a life-time trip/family reunion centered around going to Zion National Park.
This was a once in a life-time trip/family reunion centered around going to Zion National Park.
We took 2 days to get there (stopping in Twin Falls, Idaho), spent a full week in the town on La Verkin (30 minutes from Zion) and did a day trip to Bryce Canyon as well. The cousins all had fun (there was 13 of us all together) especially in the rental house pool! It was hot (107 at the most) but we were strategic. Went on some epic hikes, but the Narrows takes the cake (probably the coolest hike of my life)....
Twin Falls Idaho
Short detour at Cathedral Gorge State Park
Finally made it to the rental house in time for a sunset swim
Had some work obligations but not a bad view to be on a zoom
Checking out the nearby Confluence Park view
Up early to hike the Narrows in Zion
It was amazing! Did 8 (?) miles (out and back), the kids were troopers
Day trip to Bryce with a smaller group
We did a 3-mile loop trail that was more challenging than any of us anticipated but beautiful
Going up this was tough!
all four people in this photo are asleep after our epic hike
Another highlight was tubing down the Virgin river with Zion Tubing Co.
