The 4th Annual Zions Hike






Okay so obviously for the past four years my friends come down to LaVerkin to stay with me and my family and we go on a fun slot canyon hike in Zions. Well, this year it was more last minute, so we were unable to plan ahead to obtain a permit, so my dear friend Ange and I have to wake up at 3:30 AM to get to the Park to wait in line until 7 AM on Friday morning to get a day before permits for the subway, well we already had four people in front of us and sad to say no more subway permits, so we went to our usual Orderville, still an excellent hike... we just wanted some praise for taking one for the team on that one :) Then we had a collaboration of some of my friends from NY, Costa Rica, SLC and my cool cousin and his two random friends, which one happened to be a mutual friend of a long time friend... small world. We had a great time and fun hike, until towards the end a girl in the group behind us broke her ankle, and the tough guys in our group created a stretcher with their repel webbing and walking sticks and four hours later carried this lady to safety.... they all secretly won the girls hearts by witnessing their heroic acts.
