Zion's

This picture was taken in southern
I hiked Orderville Canyon which
is a 10 to 12 mile trek.
It is a one-way 'hike' and begins outside
the eastern boundary of the park and
ends at the Temple of Sinawava
in Zion Canyon.
One of the most challenging things
I've ever done. Also one of the most
beautiful places on earth.
Given the chance today,
I wouldn't think twice about
doing it again. Actually I
did do it twice.

I would hike it with you. I've never been to Zions. I want to see the world! I wouldn't mind starting with this beautiful country of ours. I have seen quite a bit of it.

I hiked that canyon twice with 17 year old girls from our stake. I loved it but I was so tired, that I wanted to die the last two miles. Those were the good old days when I was a little younger.
