While in Saint George, Caleb made a trip to Zions National Park to do a risky hike. We decided that it would be better not to take the boys on it, so I stayed in Saint George with them. The hike is to a point called "Angel's Landing". You can see it to the left side of the picture below... pretty high, and apparently fairly treachorous.
This is a shot of Caleb leaning back against the wall on the trail that is cut into the face of the cliff... Not much room... no room for being afraid of heights here.
This is a portion of the hike... the chain that you see if for holding on... and where exactly you are supposed to walk, I am not sure. Not long after this he decided to turn back and skip the summit, since several people die on this hike every year, and I had given him specific instructions not to come back dead. I am glad that he listened to me this time.
Even without making it all the way up, he got some fabulous shots of the scenery.
We did go back for the morning on the day that we headed home and hiked around a bit before it got too hot. 
My neice, Alaina, came home with us for the month of July and this was the first thing that we did together.
What cute boys.
Henry was ready to be done and go to sleep.

Oh, Caleb... I'm disappointed in you. This hike is AWESOME and the view at the summit makes it all worth it. I am glad you listened to your wife, though :) Marci- you need to hike this someday.
