West Rim trail |
We
took the shuttle bus to the Grotto stop then hiked part way up Angels
Landing as far as Walters Wiggles then took off on the West Rim trail
for a day of peace and solitude away from the masses climbing the
last part of Angels Landing, we have done it twice – it is a
spectacular hike but not when its so busy, as the last part is on a
narrow uphill ridge with chains.
We
were surprised just how busy Zion was but it was the weekend and the
last one for the shuttle buses but as always if you go on some trails
you have the place to yourself.

West Rim trail
Last
campfire toasted marshmallows remembering over the years the
campfires with have shared with my grandson Ash, Ron and Claudette
from Michigan and last but by no means least TelSal who made super
S'mores – such happy memories!
While
we sat watching the stars and moon there was a group on the site
playing drums, a flute and singing – I think it was the spirits of
the Paiute Indians.
