I woke up early and decided to hike Scout Lookout in Zion National Park. It is a pretty popular trail, so I had to park at the visitor center parking lot which was nearly full when I arrived around 6:30am on Saturday morning. The temperature wasn't too hot or cold—perfect for hiking! After huffing and puffing up the switchbacks, we started our descent into Refrigerator Canyon toward Scouts' Overlook where you can see Angels Landing from below it looks like just an outcropping of sandstone that doesn't look accessible until you get closer…and realize there are chains drilled into the rock face leading alllll wayyyy up!!
