 Just starting our hike.. we are freezing! But ready to rock and roll!!!! WOOHOO!!
Yes, thats right.. Zion Narrows. 16 miles of foot crunching fun! 60% of the hike is actually hiking in the Virgin River
Its rated #5 on Adventure magazine's top 100 adventures of America!
Its not too bad going until other creeks start joining the river and adding a lot more volume and also algae that make the rocks quite slippery

 Wow.. the motion looks very neat in this picture.. no idea how that happened, but I like it.
|
|
 Some beautiful fall colors!
|
|
 Early deep canyon walls.. it just would get better and better!
|
|
 There was actually quite a lot of people hiking. I liked the mix of colors in this picture.
|
|
 Some early narrows but still when the water was not so deep :)
This didn't stop our feet from becoming numb the water was so cold though!
We couldn't feel our feet for half the day!!

 This was *the* lunch area, where Deep Creek joined up with the Virgin River
So why lunch here?. Because there was actually some sun shining down here! YAY!!
We soaked it up happily. As you can see it was quite a popular area.
It was also probably the last wide open area.
|
|
 Woo. This was probably the last we saw of the sun :)
|
|
 There was some awesome little waterfalls from water coming out of the rockside
But I didn't do that well capturing it.
|
|
 Waterfalls sure are pretty though. :)

 Posing with the wonders of Idaho ;)
