Zion Trip- Day 2

We packed up our stuff and headed to Zion. We stopped in a backpacking store in Kanab, Utah and got some last minute stuff. We had to go to the
permit office which was on the west side of zion and we entered on the east side so we got to drive through the beautiful canyon before starting our hike. We got back to the trailhead around noon and started hiking. The trail was sandy in lots of spots but mostly a nice trail.... ALL uphill! It was 5 miles to the spring where we planned on camping.







Home Sweet Home. We found a campsite that someone else had made and it had a firepit, seats and 2 tent sites. It was a great place to set up our tents and we really enjoyed the work that someone else put into it. The spring where we got our water was just down the hill from our site. We slept good that night after eating a packaged meal in the evening and oatmeal for breakfast the next morning.
