We did the same last year and it was amazing. The kids went up the MIA exit and we enjoyed a night of relaxation. What I really loved about Boundary was the walls. A really beautiful canyon!
I love taking someone new up to Druid. They're climbing up that last part and you're waiting for them to turn around once and realize they just landed on Mars!
Ravens are so smart! We were on a river trip in the Grand Canyon first time we found out. The guide was just explaining how they can unzip bags when one flew overhead with my husband's bandana. Another one was when I was at a habitat meeting for our local desert tortoise reserve and they...
Love the East side! You should check out Courtney Purcell's new book, Zion National Park Summit Routes. Lots of great routes, some over my head for sure! Stay safe
I was there last March. I had to walk the last part of the road because of the snow and change my destination to Angel Arch instead of the entire trail. Cold at night, beautiful in the day. Never saw anyone till I was coming out. Great report!
I have a 4 runner and sand was coming in through the cracks in the back doors. High clearance necessary for sure. Going in cool weather really helps too. That being said, I loved white pocket. Good luck!

Beautiful and I know the feeling well of maybe I shouldn't have tried this! The spikes are helpful but sometimes you have clear slickrock alternating with snow. The ladder would really hard with snow!
You certainly knew how to hit the highlights! Your pictures were like a photo album of all the places I love! I was out at White Pocket a week or two ago with my 4 Runner and the sand was coming in through the door bottoms, that deep. You must have legs of steel! Fantastic report, can't wait...
When we hiked that Boulder field, my husband stepped right over a small rattlesnake without noticing. Left it for me! I didn't let him live that one down for awhile.
