Hiking the Canyons


We went on a really neat vacation with Marcie's family to southern Utah hiking in Zion's National Park and Bryce Canyon. It was a very fun trip to say the least. The vacation began on July 21st and ended July 23rd. It was a quick trip but like we said, it was a blast.

Jared's highlight of the trip was a hike called "Angles Landing" at Zion's. Jared, Keith (brother-in-law) and Neil (father-in-law) hiked it with him. The estimated 5 hour hike took these guys about 2 hours. Pretty impressive. This hike takes the hiker to the top of a very tall ridge or cliff that gives a beautiful view of the canyon. The pictures are breathtaking.


Marcie's highlight of the trip was being with her family as well as going camping. It was so much fun to talk and enjoy her family. To Marcie nothing is better than being with family. Marcie also really enjoyed hiking the narrows. This hike is at the bottom of a canyon and the we hiked in the river that cuts through the canyon floor. It was so much fun!


Both of us agree that this trip made us grateful for the beauties of nature and for wonderful family. Thank you Banner Family for putting in all your time and effort to make this trip so memorable and exciting. We had a great time!
