Kolob Canyon

On Sunday morning we picked up Hallee. We said a quick goodbye to Caitlyn so she could go to church.

There is an entrance to Zion's National Park fifteen minutes away from Cedar City.  It is very different from the South entrance. 

The Kolob Canyon entrance has a couple of long hikes and one short overlook hike.

Hallee wasn't excited about going, but she was a good sport about it. 

We just did the one mile overlook hike. 

We tried to go here last year, but the road was washed out, so we couldn't go.

I'm glad we were able to fit it in before our pass expired.

It is pretty, but definitely not as amazing as the south entrance. 

It is a lot less crowded though!

We took our time and tried to make it fun for Hallee.

We stopped often to enjoy the view.

The hike wasn't super hard, but it was pretty steep and rocky in parts. 

We got some good pictures of Hallee along the way.

Being out in nature is so good for my mental health.

It was fun to have this time with Hallee.

Pictures never do it justice, but it sure was pretty.

The clouds didn't cooperate for the pictures. Luckily we got an early start because it started raining on our way home. 

It's always a good feeling to make it to the top.

After the hike we headed home. It was a quick trip, but so much fun.  It was just the boost we needed!
