This weekend, Miss Molly (henceforth referred to as Bitter Princess of the Forest) and I voyaged to the remote northwestern Kolob Canyons area of Zion. Originally planned as a long 14-mile day hike to the Kolob Arch, we instead opted to turn it into an overnight backpack to help us prep for our 40-mile backpack...
That’s me. I found out tonight that I made the front page of the outdoors section of the southern Utah newspaper! My name is no stranger to print, but it is a rare occasion when a photo of me, not by me, makes its way in. (photo by Garrett)
It is days like today that I fully appreciate the act of sitting. I hurt. I went to yoga yesterday after not going in over a month, and now I hurt. My abs and hamstrings have been ripped in half. Though I may ache the good hurt right now, I was feeling limber right after...
Ten miles of boulder-hopping and water-walking in an empty area of Zion amounted to the best hike I’ve done since living here. The end.
With Whitney’s bike race in Hurricane this weekend, we decided to camp out in Zion after the race rather than heading back to my neck of the woods. She was so exhausted after the 25-mile race that hiking was not really an option, so we camped on the same sandy shores that I got stuck...
As I promised in a previous post… VIDEOS! Flickr just keeps getting better and better. Gaaaaaaaaaaaary!!!
Did you actually think I didn’t go to Zion this weekend? Ha! Of course I did. Be jealous.
Being photographers, Miss Molly and I hate carting around massive camera gear when we don’t need to. Molly even contemplated not bringing her camera on her vacation to HAWAII last week (she did bring it though, thank god, and has amazing photos to show for it). On hikes, I usually just pack the camera with...
It’s Sunday. That means I go to Zion for yoga… and seeing as the weather was grand and yoga didn’t kick my ass today, I was ready for an intense hike after all that downward dogging. I was ready for Angels Landing. Yoga may not have kicked my ass this morning, but this hike did....
I went hiking in Zion for the first time today. Sounds crazy, right? I mean, I’ve driven through Zion about a hundred times (I do it every week on my way to yoga), camped and hiked on BLM land just outside of Zion, but I’ve never actually hiked in Zion. I’ve stopped and taken photos...
