We are in the final planning stages of the big Utah hiking trip. We plan to do quite a few hikes, but the longest is the Narrows hike at Zion. Sixteen miles in and out of the water, over slippery bowling-ball rocks. Sounds like a pending knee operation to me. But think of the adventure, the experience, the pictures...
We're hiking all kinds of other gulches, washes, and other names for dried up rivers. All of us are in "get in shape, because I don't want to collapse of a heart attack in Peek-a-Boo canyon and have to be dragged out by my horrified and infuriated family" mode. We are also reading up on flash floods, because we don't want the experience of being chased by a wall of water in a confined space. We have unanimously agreed that would be a bad thing.
