Zions National Park

DAY ONE

Family picture in Kolob Canyon on the Taylor Creek Trail. Kylee is in there. She's snoozing in the pack on Steve's back.



Cody climbing rocks



Cody and I hiking on the Taylor Creek Trail. It was SO hot.



Kylee taking a little break from the kid pack.



We stayed at a house in Springdale (right outside the park) that is owned by my parents' friends. This is the view from their back porch. Amazing, huh?


DAY TWO

The Middle Emerald Pool on the Emerald Pools hike



Steve & Tif at the Upper Emerald Pool

Steve almost to the top of Angel's Landing


DAY THREE

This is a little waterfall just below Weeping Rock.



On the Riverwalk Trail. Steve made us hike primitive trails so that he could get some good pictures.



Cody catching tadpoles



Kylee zonked in her pack. Our kids are such good sports when it comes to hiking



On the Canyon Overlook hike

Our kids are amazing hikers. We saw everything we wanted to see and they hung in there with good attitudes the whole time. We drove home late Friday night after 3 days of hiking. When Cody woke up the next morning he wanted to go hiking. I think we have found something that our family likes to do together.

You guys are awesome hikers! I'm so impressed how many hikes you went on. Wasn't the weather fantastic? I loved that it cooled down on Saturday and even rained...although our reunion festivities were put on hold...Fun to see you up by Weeping rock too...
