Out and back hike in Zion Park to the top of Angels Landing. Begin this hike at The Grotto bus stop. The trail starts by climbing the cliffs with little to no shade. If you start early enough the sun will be blocked by the cliff wall, saving you from the pain of climbing in desert heat. The idea is to get to Refrigerator Canyon before the sun gets high enough that you loose the shadow of the cliffs. Once past Refrigerator Canyon you start Walters Wiggles. Shortly beyond that is the final test. If you're afraid of heights, this is probably the end of your hike. But the best part is ahead. It's a scary climb but worth it. At times it's hard to believe this final climb is still open to the public. |
