Vacation - Part 3



These are some of the cliffs that make Zion so special. The Great White Throne

Day three was about the river! The kids and I played along the river while waiting on JP to finish his ride. We got to see some deer up close that got Pickle pretty excited and Brother enjoyed finally getting to use the shovel he brought. The Riverwalk hike takes you along the river back into Zion Canyon to the start of the Narrows. The Narrows is an awesome hike that starts right at the river's edge and you just keep walking into the water to explore the many caves. Needless to say we didn't head into the Narrows with the kids but JP and I did it several years ago and I can't wait to do it again. The kids enjoyed playing in the water even though it was freezing!Day three ended with The Little Guy receving his Junior Ranger Badge for Zion. He loves doing the activities and takes his "job" as Junior Ranger very seriously!
