Hi Brother, Thank you for posting this video! I'm also from OH and I moved to St. George, UT four years ago after a national parks road trip got me hooked. I've been following your channel for awhile. Very inspiring and I shared with a relative who is having major mobility issues. If you are out here in the SW again drop me a line and I can show you some hidden gem spots. Thank you
Thank you for not dying from pneumonia. The hike you didn't really get to enjoy because you felt you just shouldn't have done it.... at least you have video of it, and reminders to not do it alone again. Beautiful video. ❤️
I know the shuttle bus policy at Zion can seem restrictive - but I was once lucky enough to be there in off-season when the shuttle buses weren't running and you could take your car up into the park - and it was really disappointing to realise that after my first hike of the day, well, that was going to be it, because by the time I was ready to move to my next hike, every other trailhead car park was completely full. So whilst you might get to enjoy it from the comfort of your car, what you'll mainly be enjoying is circling round and round looking for a parking space! The only thing i now don't like about the shuttles is that, having been so lucky to visit Zion several times, I now know the commentary by heart... 😀Another lovely video from you, thank you - always look forward to the next one!
Thank you for watching! Yes, unfortunately I know the driving in circles routine very well. Even with a handicapped parking placard, often all of the handicap spaces are full as well. It's a big problem in most National Parks if you want to do anything after 10 am, but I also understand not wanting to destroy the parks with massive parking lots everywhere. It's a delicate balance, wanting people to come out and enjoy the parks, but not being able to handle the crowds. The shuttle buses help with vehicle congestion, but the wait lines during mid-day are ridiculous. I don't use my physical condition as an excuse to cut lines in front of others, so waiting and not moving gets very uncomfortable for me. All the hassles are still well worth seeing these amazing places though. It helps me practice patience. Haha. Thanks again!

Thank you. It was a learning experience for sure.
Nice job Jeremy. Maybe consider carrying a zoleo with you in case you encounter an issue in a hike. Can't hurt. Glad you were able to complete it.
Thank you. That's not a bad idea
