Zion National Park
Last weekend a couple of long time friends from college and I decided to take a trip and do some serious hiking. Originally we had planned on visiting some slot canyons in NE Arizona but discovered a guide was required. Then we had planned Havasupai falls but there were no spots available for the days we wanted to hike down. So we turned to Utah and decided to hike around Zion National Park. On the first and last days we did a number of easy hikes along the main corridor that runs through the park. The middle day we went on a 14.5 mile trip to visit the Kolob Arch. It was nice to get out of the more crowded areas of the park and back into areas not easily seen.

Durango Colorado Trip
Last week we set off on our annual fishing / camping trip with some long time friends. Each year we pick a different spot alternating between in state and out of state. This year was out of state and we chose a location about 15 miles north of Durango Colorado. It was my first visit to this area and we will definitely be going back. We had excellent weather and did lots of fishing, biking, and kayaking. Caitlyn reeled in her first fish which was exciting but not nearly as exciting as throwing pine cones in the lake.
