"Angel's Landing"
I've taken up Hiking !!!!!
These are a few pictures of the my hike on Angels Landing in Zions National Park. This is Shirley Johnson (a cousin/friend on the Larsen/Laub side) and I at the top of Angels Landing. It is a Elevation Gain.....Long steady climb of 1488' feet. The Peak is at 5785'.
I loved it and I'm ready to do it again!
We have been hiking for about two months. There are many many beautiful trails right here in Kanab. I literally can walk out my front door and walk around the block to one of them. Most of the trails are well marked and used by many... And some are NOT Easy. BUT I LOVE IT.
My goal is to hike rim to rim of the Grand Canyon... This fall.

This is part of "Angels Landing".

The very narrow part of it. There are cliffs on each side.




This Condor was flying around a little before we reached the top.... It was so beautiful and then all of a sudden it landed on this dead tree that was only 20 (ish) feet away from us.
Wow!




The date on these picture are incorrect... opps

Are you kidding me. You hike with a ledge on both sides. You freaked out driving to the Grand Canyon.
I'm glad to see you have overcome your fears.
Wish it was cool enough here to even go outside.
Way to go.
