On a quiet day, we visited a familiar local park to break up the doldrums of distance learning. Monrovia Canyon Park is a local park in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains that offers miles of hiking trails, scenic views, and a popular waterfall.
Echo Mountain is a popular front range hike with easy access from Altadena. At 5.5 miles round trip with about a 1400 foot elevation gain, it is considered moderate. There are some cool ruins at the top, harkening back to the 'Golden Age of Hiking."
Bryce Canyon National Park is one of Utah's 'big five' national parks located in southern Utah and is extraordinarily scenic any time of year. This post is a hike up memory lane, detailing our 2015 summer trip.
In the second of our two part Zion National Park series, we hiked the Zion's famed Narrows, wading through the refreshingly cool Virgin River.
This two part series will be a hike down memory lane. Our 2015 visit to Zion National Park took us along beautiful trails by foot and by horseback. There is much to be explored in Utah's national parks.
