  • After spending Thanksgiving with our families, we packed up the van again and hit the road heading towards Zion National Park! With sandstone mountains towering over an emerald colored river and plants ranging from pine trees to cacti, this park quickly exceeded all of our expectations! We went hiking on as many trails as we could and luckily, we scored some permits for the infamous Angels Landing trail! We even had time to squeeze in a little rock climbing too ;) Honestly, we never had any plans or intentions on visiting Zion National Park but we’re so glad that we did and recommend that you do too! Enjoy :)

    FYI Angels Landing is super chill! If you’re thinking about it, you should totally do it! Don’t let the other TH-cam videos scare you. 😅.
    Also don’t fall for those stupid spam comments.

      I hiked it this past April. The permit system is seriously flawed. Long story short, I went into the canyon on the frist shuttle of the day. Then I just poached it. To bad the National parks made me feel like a criminal. I drove out there from Vermont I was not going to be denied. Glad I went to Zion, but never again. Way to many people for this Vermonter.

    So glad you guys got to experience Zion! My first time there was in March so probably similar conditions. I also went in with no expectations or knowledge about the park other than Angel's Landing. I don't think there is a single picture out there that can prepare you for what you'll see coming out of that tunnel from the east entrance. It's just absolutely unreal. We arrived in the late afternoon and it had been cloudy and raining. But the sun decided to make an appearance and the lighting was just something else. I will never forget that first drive into the park.

    I love how you guys create videos with a slightly different mood sometimes, some of them are more "adventurous" and some of them are more "chilled and relexed" and I assume that reflects the mood you were in when you created the video. It feels so authentic, love it!

    Greetings from Canada. My wife and I did Angels Landing in March 2019 when we were in our mid 60's. We didn't need a permit, we just got up really early and cycled up the road from our campsite. When we went here was a LOT more people up there compared to what you've shown especially when we were on our way down. I'd really like to know the time frame of your videos, we always camp in the off season so it would be nice to where to go and at what time of year too.
