Here we are ready to start, Friday morning about 9 AM after a 1.5 hour shuttle ride from the park.
You start the hike at Chamberlain Ranch, a private ranch high above Zions.
It's amazing that this little creek eventually turns into the narrows.
Ready to go.
We're off.
North fork of the virgin river.
Moo.
Dad and some of the guys we went with. Our group had 11 people in it.
Off across the cow pie pasture.
An old cabin.
Protective mother.
Start to see some walls forming.
Looks like we're about to enter some place in Middle Earth.
First spectacular scene.
Pictures don't do it justice.
A waterfall.
Our campsite. This was about 9 miles into the hike. We were there by about 3 PM. There are 12 designated campsites in the Narrows. Dad & I shared this one. We both took a nap and then we were still ready for bed by 8PM. We were wiped out.
Ready to go...day 2. 7 more miles.
Big Springs coming up.
This was spectacular....Big Springs.
Coming up to the narrowest part of The Narrows.
Amazing views like this around every corner.
