There is something about zion in april that just hits different.
The route was out-and-back through left fork from wildcat canyon side cool morning air helped us move fast before the canyon warmed up footing was solid on the dry benches and a little slick near water lines. We had light company on the trail.
Trust your prep.
Quick notes:
- study the route at home.
- count your miles.
- start earlier than you think.
- keep snacks accessible.
