Easter in Southern Utah

Buckskin Gulch

For Easter, Maria, William, and I took a quick Allegiant flight to Las Vegas, rented a car, and blasted out to join friends in Kanab, Utah.  Southern Utah has long been among my favorite places, but it had been way too long since I had a chance to visit.  I'll be back again much sooner.  There is no more unique landscape to be found in North America.  It is like one giant playground and if you want to feel like a kid again go there and find a slot canyon.  We were fortunate enough to score a permit into The Wave, and indescribable carved sandstone feature at the end of a three mile hike in the Vermilion Cliffs.  Twenty people per day get to go and I have to say that it is probably the most amazing natural feature I have ever seen.  We also hiked in a couple of great slot canyons as well as drove through parts of Bryce Canyon and Zion National Parks.  Not bad for a four-day weekend.
