So I'm a little behind on the blogging... but better late than never! A couple weekends back we took another trip down to Zions! We got a group together, friends from here and there and headed back down to Zions to hike the Narrows just like last year. But this year was a little different for me... first, there was no way I was going to hike the Narrows again- once was good enough for me- its beautiful and a really neat hike, but really tough and an all day event. So I stayed back and played chauffeur with Ashley. We dropped the group off in the morning at the top and then waited for them at the bottom!
Here is the one picture I got of everyone after we dropped them off!
So in between drop off and pick up we had some time to kill. Guess we wanted a challenge because we decided on hiking Angles Landing! If your afraid of heights then this is not the hike for you... but I loved it!
I went out on a limb for this picture!
Ashley got a little crazy too! But the sad part is that we weren't even close to the top yet... we just didn't know that!
We still had the strip behind Ashley in this picture + whats in front of her to go!
Here is a good picture of the chain they made to hold on to. We were real careful to follow the advise of the sign that said something about "veering from path may result in death". Yikes! We stayed really close to that chain!
I liked this hike so much that I got up the next morning and did it again with Nate and some of his buddies.
Here we are at the top... I'm holding on to Nate for dear life!
And...
Me and Nate at the top!
When I was on my mission I would get a letter from my dad every once in a while, but when I opened it all I would find was a picture with small note on the back that said "a pictures is worth a thousand words!" All I could think was "gee, thanks dad!" Well when I was looking through the pictures of our Zions trip I thought of that saying and yeah a picture is worth a thousand words but not when it comes to Angles landing! The pictures we took I thought were so amazing but they don't even begin to describe how crazy this hike was!!! Really, its just something you have to see for yourself! And I would recommend it!

That sounds like so much fun! We wish we could've gone. We need to get together before we leave!!
I'm jealous! We should have done some hiking while we were in Utah. I guess we'll just have to make a vacation out of it someday. How's the job search?
Hey I never even saw this post! I don't know how I missed it! Anyway, that was so fun!! I'm so glad we got to hang out!! Thanks for puttin' up with me all day!!
Wish I wasn't with a bunch of lamos and could have hiked Angel's on the second day. That was awesome though. Thanks you guys for setting it up again.
