Escalante

This summer JD and I went to Escalante to go hiking and canyoneering! It was so much fun and so risky:) We camped in our backpacking tent and hiked and rappelled all day long. We tied our gear around a rock and hoped that it held as we rappelled down the cliff! I was so nervous on the first one- I for sure thought the rock would be comin down with us, but sure enough it worked! We also hiked through slot canyons that were sooo skinny. There were a few points where JD had to suck in and shove his body through. If you're at all claustrophobic, you don't wanna hike these canyons!

It was so narrow JD's hips couldn't fit!
