Okay, here we are day two Zion we just picked our permit up for the subway and we're doing tomorrow and
Today we're planning on doing the angels landing, but it's really windy. It's colder than yesterday. There is a load of people here
That's the line for the shuttle bus. So
There's 40 mile an hour wind gusts we're gonna try angels landing I
Don't know if we're gonna do it or not. We're gonna see how we feel
We're gonna try and skip this line and hike up to the museum catch the shuttle bus from there
So hopefully angels landing today. We got the permit for tomorrow for the subway. So that'll be cool
It's like 40 degree water will be ankle-deep in that all day. So that'll be that'll be fun
So we're geared up ready to go
Well as you can see
The museum is further than we thought it was so we're trying to hitchhike to the museum or another shuttle bus stop
My wife said
She said I should hang a different body part out
I don't think I would stop for that either
I don't really know. I think the museum is like really a lot further than we thought that's the first stop on the shuttle
Oh, yeah, my faith in humanity is restored a
kind gentleman picked us up
And we're hitchhiking the back of the truck
We don't have to wait in that long ass line for the shuttle bus because we're gonna go to a stop further up
Catch the shuttle bus up that way like a boss
See that's using your head that is using your head
I'm a ridiculous adventuring fool. I'd be hitchhiking in national parks when there's a shuttle bus. I don't know shuttle bus what?
Apparently this is the easy part
But it's beautiful scenery nonetheless
so
Haven't got to the tough stuff yet
The rest assured we do will be prepared for it
Walters wiggles about this bunch of switchbacks to get up to there and then beyond
Brutal Walter what was a wiggling mofo play that much
Angels laying half a mile away from angels landing. So we've already done two miles
The thing I thought was Walters Wiggles was not Walters Wiggles
Try and get a shot of that so you can see the actual Wiggles. It was tougher than the switchbacks we did before
Obviously the views amazing see this dead tree behind me, but the rest of it
Still don't know which
what Walters Wiggles was but
I don't care. I made it to the top. It wasn't as hard as I thought it was. I have a feeling going down is gonna be
tougher
than coming up but
Pretty sweet highly recommended
