Zion National Park Part II

Yesterday we woke up early and hiked The Narrows. Which was probably the coolest most beautiful hike I have ever done. The sandstone canyon walls rise up hundreds of feet around you while you are waist deep in the light blue Virgin River. The “trail” follows the river as it winds through the canyon walls. Each time we came around the next bend, it was just as breathtaking as the last one. It is a hike I highly recommend. The enormous canyon walls will leave you speechless and wading through the river will make you feel like a 18th century explorer. We took the first bus for both Angel’s Landing and The Narrows which I also highly recommend. As we were ending our hikes, the crowds of people starting the trails were by the hundreds it seemed.

We got done with The Narrows in the afternoon. We packed up the truck and camper, made some lunch and hightailed it for California. Our original plan was to stop at Death Valley National Park. I am writing this blog entry from a parking lot in Big Sur, CA. Plans changed. - My mind was so free from the concept of time that I had no idea what date and day it was. Which caused us to run into a problem this morning. We pulled up to Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park and realized we were 1 day early. Being that all the campgrounds around are full, here we are. Anyway..

I drove about seven hours yesterday. My eyes started to sag so I pulled into a rest area next to some big rigs and set up camp. We finished the drive to Big Sur this morning.

Side note • After driving 100+ miles on the Pacific Coast Highway up towards Big Sur. I am officially declaring it to be America’s most beautiful scenic road.

I will post up pictures of our first day in Big Sur tomorrow morning!

Cheers!
