Maxine Visits the USA - Angels Landing

So here we go - after a relaxing Sunday, Monday brought high adventure.  We hiked Angel's landing in Zion National Park.  It's not for the faint of heart.  Cliffs of around 1,500 feet surround you as you hike up a pinacle of rock that ultimately has a spectacular view.


This is the trail we climbed from the bottom of Zion Canyon to get to the top.


Brennen, Bruce and Maxine made it up to the top while Lisa and the kids played with tadpoles and snakes in the river below.


The view from on top.


After straining a few muscles...success.  We made it.


We hung around on top for about 25 mins before we headed back down.


Some quick video of the occasion.
