Zion Subway descent (Sep 2003)

Call us crazy. We took the kids and some friends down the Subway on Fall Equinox in 2003. Sasha was only 6.5 years old! Jan and Chase had never hiked anything remotely this difficult. There was lots of swimming, crawling on ledges to bypass cold pools, downclimbs, and short rappels. We all made the 9 miles in about 9 hours

Smiles once we're past the difficult downclimbs and pools. Now only 4 miles of rock hopping and a 600' cliff to ascend at the end.
