Orderville Canyon - Zion East Side
Date: 06/15/2012
Did a combination of Birch Hollow and exiting down Orderville with a group of 9; made for a long day exiting Orderville. I didn't find Orderville very fun, but is was probably because we were hurrying too much.

Neon Canyon - Escalante
Date: 06/03/2011
Left trailhead at 7 am; returned at 8:30 pm. The trip is long but worth it. The last climb out to the rim just about did me in. Neon is a lot of fun and the Golden Cathedral is amazing.
