Zion Trip Summary

The impressive East Temple

For the last few years I've gone to Zion for the last week in April. I just love this place and am not bored in the slightest. I plan to be back next year as well. Here's a summary from the 2012 Trip:

Zion Day 1: The Organ

Zion Day 2: Deer Trap Mountain and Hidden Canyon

Zion Day 3: Johnson Mountain

Zion Day 4: Smashmouth

Zion Day 5: The Watchman

Zion Day 6: Confluence Area Cragging

Zion Day 7: Observation Point and Jenny Peak

Zion Day 8: Sheer Lunacy

Zion Day 9: Angel's Landing Run

I did a total of 103 miles (49 running, 13 biking, 41 hiking) with 25,000 feet of climbing, roped up for 28 pitches on 11 different routes, made 6 summits (The Organ, Deer Trap Mountain, Johnson Mountain, the Watchman, Jenny Peak, Angel's Landing), and descended two canyons.
