We hiked Lower Maidenwater last weekend. We loved the canyon but I understand why it isn't more popular. You have to hike about a mile in before it turns awesome and then the last 3 miles are also just alright. But the main section of the canyon was really cool!

Scaling down the hill:

Might be some music you added or something, but I get this when trying to watch your video:

"This video contains content from WMG, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds."
 
What day did you all hike it? We were there on Saturday the 28th.

I loved the canyon, but the hike up Trail took some of the fun out of it.

Loved the pics and video. :twothumbs:
 
I love when your kids fall down, my reaction is "Oh sh**!" but before I can really finish the thought, they are up and running again.
