Since surviving the Havasupai hike, there has been discussion of making an annual backpacking trip. Becca and I have been tossing around ideas for a while now, which have included Yosemite, Yellowstone or Glacier National Park, and Alaska. Alaska was leading the pack for a time, but then we checked airfares . . . too far, too expensive, and in my opinion too many grizzly bears to be out bushwacking for three or four days.
We agreed closer to home might work out better. Becca wanted to do Havasupai again, but my toenails are just now after six months beginning to resemble toenails again. Plus I have a little bit of that "been there, done that" feeling about Havasupai. It is beautiful and well worth the trip, but . . .
So ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to announce that the 2nd Annual Backpack Trip will be . . . the ZION NARROWS . . . in southern Utah, most likely the first weekend in June. Something to look forward to.

I love Zion! It is one of my favorite parks. Prepare to want to quit your job and move.
