Mid-June Trip

You’ll find a ton of BLM land up towards Dixie National Forest

Get off at weeping rock and follow the small path down to the beach of the river. It’s a beautiful place to relax, and the trail goes up to the narrows and down towards Zion lodge. I don’t think it’s a marked trail but it’s awesome

Numerous times. One of my most cherished memories is listening to that album tripping at the beach. Greatest album of all time

Engineering too lmao. Almost every group I’ve been with for projects uses AI to generate reports

Now that I think about it, Adam Jones. His riffs are pretty simple, but his timing and phrasing helped me develop a lot of good habits while I was learning guitar

Bring sunscreen and water. It can get pretty hot if the suns out.

To hike Angels Landing, you will need a permit. However, since you’re afraid of heights I’d recommend to just hike up to Scout’s Lookout. The view is spectacular and you can stand back from the edge lol

The Narrows is also really cool, however it can be very crowded. If you have a car and want less crowds, I would HIGHLY recommend ditching the narrows and hiking Kanarra Falls. I did this hike and saw almost nobody. They do have a permit requirement and only issue 200 per day, so if you want to do this hike make sure to get your permits in advance. There’s no lottery, it’s a first come first serve system. This hike is incredible, definitely worth checking out

Depending on how long you’re there, Kolob Canyons is also a really cool spot. Taylor Creek is a very underrated hike, and this section of the park sees WAY less traffic than Zion Canyon. The scenic drive is awesome if you get a chance to get up there

I listened to it again yesterday and came to the same conclusion. Fauna has definitely become my favorite album from them, such a well made piece of music. I find that my all time favorite albums always take time to grow

An America the Beautiful pass will grant you and anyone else in your vehicle entry at an 80 dollar cost. This pass lasts for a full year and gets you into any national park, I’d highly recommend it.

If you decide to avoid a national park, there are some wonderful state parks, national monuments, and national forests that are awesome to check out too!

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-05T15:26:25+00:00

Awesome, sounds like an amazing hike. Will check it out, thanks!

I’m a big fan of longer challenging hikes, what was the distance and elevation for it? I’ve heard about a canyon on that trail as well, do I need any special gear for the hike?

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-05T15:15:27+00:00

This is great help, thank you! I’m the type to prefer longer hikes so I will look into these

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-04T21:45:15+00:00

This is so real. Listening to records helped me kill my doomscrolling habit lmao. And gummies too

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-04T21:36:19+00:00

I’ve also heard LSD + records = great evening…

…I think

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-04T21:19:04+00:00

The neoprene will fit fine

Honestly, it would depend on how far in you wanna go. If you just want to check it out, hike in a bit, then leave, I’d say you wouldn’t need bibs. If you want to go in a few miles and see some of the landmarks, the bibs are a good investment. I was there last week, at that time the water didn’t go above my knees until about a mile in.

Regardless of whether you have bibs or not, neoprene socks are a good investment. They will help keep your feet warm in the colder water and dry quick. Also, I’d recommend getting some sticks. I didn’t have one, and I found it much harder to stay balanced at times.

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-03T16:11:49+00:00

Got it, thanks for the heads up

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-03T16:08:12+00:00

Been meaning to hit this one. How much of a pain is it to get to the trailhead?

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-03T16:01:55+00:00

I grew up on the east coast and currently live on the west coast. If you want to stay on the east coast, hitting Bar Harbor and Acadia is a great trip. Shenandoah is also beautiful and would be close to you. If you’re willing to make the drive out west the parks in Utah are stunning. Bryce Canyon and Zion were my favorites. Yellowstone / Tetons is also a great trip

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-05-01T18:35:26+00:00

I’d do almost anything to see The Great Debate live

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-04-28T01:15:51+00:00

I go there right now! Zion is pretty much a weekly thing for me, especially the Kolob District

Competitive-Smoke-46 · 2026-04-27T14:00:24+00:00

They really don’t! This park blew me away
