Angel's Landing, June 1, 2010
Yesterday I had the opportunity to go with Mom, Jeri, and Kristin to climb Angel's Landing!! Here we were snapping pics, talking, laughing, and so excited about what we were about to do....
As we got closer to the start of the switch backs, we looked up to see people walking across the face of these cliffs! Then we started to wonder how in the crap do we get up there!! But this somehow just made us more excited....
I have to say the first part of the climb was most enjoyable, we were meeting very nice people and stopping often for a picture! It was uphill every step, but really very beautiful and I could not figure out what was so scary about hiking to Angel's Landing.....
Just still making our way up the hill, having a great time!! I think the people around us were thinking we were crazy!!
FUNNY!! So at this point we had been climbing uphill for close to an hour. Kristin thought this hole in the rock would be a good place to take a short nap!
I think we could've made it in half the time if we would have stayed focused and just hiked instead of taking all these detours for pics!!
WOW!! This canyon was amazing!! I couldn't stop looking around trying to take it all in. I caught myself snapping pics while I was walking, I then had to remind myself I was walking along a very narrow pathway that was straight up on one side and straight down on the other. We were starting to get high enough, I could clearly see how a lot of people fall to their deaths, I stopped taking pics and walking at the same time!
