Parunuweap and Misery Canyon

Parunuweap and the Barracks are without a doubt my favorite place in the world. The hike getting there is an ideal adventure with a Zion National Part start, one of the funnest slot canyons anywhere and warm spring at the end! The East Fork of the Virgin River (Parunuweap Canyon) is as impressive as the Zion Narrows but situated in a remote and wild environment. I got to finally meet Dave Webb from Utah.com who I have been talking to about hiking together for almost a year! He brought his brother and his brothers son and radio talk show host Chris Draper. We all hung out in Mount Carmel Junction for the night and set out on our trip after Chris's early morning Saturday Outdoor Show on KSL. He is able to do this by a satellite phone. My hiking partner Bo Beck went with us and one of his co-workers and his friend caught up with us at Fat Man's Misery.

Dave put a video of some of the fun highlights of the hike on the net. People here at work keep teasing me about doing the dog paddle through the water. ~laughing~
