Description
I think I was 60 when I got to hike one of the most spectacular hikes not only in Zion National Park but all of the USA. Three miles up to Wall Street and we went about a mile beyond. That makes it an 8 mile trip slogging through the moving waters of the Virgin River anywhere from ankle deep to thigh high. Some in our group went further to where you could only swim. Some much younger than me, turned and went back.
I can not recommend this gorgeous hiking experience enough. Some places the canyon is only about 12 feet wide and the walls are so high you can barely see the sky. It took the whole day, we started at about 8 AM and didn't make it back out until after 4 PM. Hiking up was difficult once a bit deeper into the canyon. I wrongly assumed it would be an easy trip back down, but you are still dealing with the constantly moving water and walking on rocks somewhere between softball and bowling ball size.
Doubt I will ever have the opportunity to do it again, exhaustion aside though, it was incredible.
