Over the weekend, Bobbee and I got a good taste of Utah's rivers. Friday we hiked "The Narrows," a very popular hike up the Virgin River in Zion Canyon. I have to admit, we were a bit hesitant to jump into a COLD river, but the hike turned out to be amazing. Hiking up a river is a challenging experience - because you have to concentrate on every step, you never quite get into a rhythm. Nonetheless, the scenary was incredible!

Bobbee and I flew to Salt Lake City on Tuesday, and after buying some maps at REI, headed south. After spending the night in Cedar City, we continued to Zion National Park. Words can't describe the beauty of this place. (It's a good thing we have a camera!) We did a day hike yesterday, and got caught in a bit of a thunderstorm. This morning, we met our guide, Greg, from Zion Rock and Mountain Guides, for an amazing morning of canyoneering.
