Hiking the Narrows

On the way to CO to drop off Jessica for school, we (Jessica Juhala andJonathan Juhala) stopped at Zion National Park to hike the "Narrows". 10 mile hike, 8 miles of that in the river / river bed. 50% of the time in the water, no higher than my waist. 75% of the time walking on rocks that were more the size of bowling balls than baseballs. Great fun and photos, but exhausting! We hit the trail at 10 am and were off the trail at 5:30. No bathrooms along the way, or should I say, all one bathroom along the way. Not for the tenderfoot or those with shy bladders.

Widest part of the canyon is 1/4 mile, the most narrow is 22 feet.

Some parts were all shade and some parts sunshine.
