Zion Trip Day 1: Canyon Overlook Trail

Vic started a new job and didn't have vacation time so my mom and Mark talked Amber and I into going on vacation without our husbands!
We left Idaho Falls at 8pm and drove through the night and then again early in the morning so we had plenty of time to hike on our first day.  Here we are at our campsite all ready to go!
 We had to stop by the road for this picture as I felt like we were in the movie of "Cars" and this was the Wheel Well Hotel behind us!
 First we stopped at the visitor center and got our Junior Ranger book for the kids to search for animals and good deeds to do.  Then we were ready to go!  This is Canyon Overlook Trail, it was probably my favorite hike.  The entire thing was a rock climbing adventure.

 There was lots of lizards for the kids to spot.



 This is one of my favorite pictures from the trip.
 The hike never got boring!


 We made it to the top!





 Amber was supposed to join us in the morning, but didn't get there until night so we went for a late walk when she got there.
 The moonlight was beautiful over the canyon walls!
