Eden On Earth

If you ever want to see what Eden would like on Earth, go to Zion National Park.  (You’ll still have to picture it without the roads, but you’ll get the idea real quick.)

The two hikes I’m really stoked to do there are:

1.  The Narrows.  I would canoe it, but I’m no where near skilled enough.  Learn more here and here.

2.  Angel’s Landing.  Info here.

Don’t get me wrong, I want to do all the other hikes there also.  This place really is a piece of Heaven on Earth.  It’s amazing.

In the meantime I’m going to show some shots I took on our scouting trip of the park.

I don’t know the details, but Chicago Tap Theatre is performing in New York City this weekend, go see them if you’re in the area.  More details are available here, I think.

Hang Gliders?

I realize this is some sign they, the BLM, use for everything and place under the sun.  At this point I’ve seen well over a hundred of them.  As I said, the BLM uses them everywhere.

But I have to say, there is a humor in telling me not to use my hang glider in a slot canyon that literally isn’t much wider than my shoulders at several points.  I’m going to say you hang glide down this canyon, you win.

You just win.  Everything.  You win.
