Grand Diversion...

Disappointment turns to awe: 

The Narrows

A planned 'rim-to-rim (rest) to rim' double traverse of the Grand Canyon evaporates in the federal shutdown scirocco, leaving disappointment in its wake.  We diverted to the area around Zion National Park with plans to explore the carved and canyoned periphery of Zion. Much to our surprise, Zion opened just as we were arriving (thank you Governor Herbert and the State of Utah! ) and we were able to do a life-list trip: The top-down Virgin River 'Narrows', as well as hiking Valley to top of West Rim, Observation Point, and Snow Canyon State Park. 50 miles in 4 days, lifelong memories, struck with awe and wonder....
