Day 1: Leaving the 559
Alicia spent the night at my house so that we could just get up and go. We woke up at 8 in the morning and got dressed, then packed all of our supplies and whatnot. We made some PB&J sandwiches and put them in our ice chest along with our beverages, fruit, and canned food. We departed at 11 ...

We spotted Vernal and Nevada Falls across the valley, still-running, which we would have hiked to in our younger kid-free days (thank goodness for kids!). ...
