Swimming at Zion



It’s joy and terror as Ben makes his first float down the Virgin River

When we reached the bottom of the canyon after our hike to the Emerald Pools, we were pretty bushed and hot. Luckily, the Virgin River is a quiet, shallow stream this time of year, and there’s a perfect swimming hole at the Grotto’s trail head. The boys jumped in and splashed around for an hour or so. I had to clone six people out of existence in the main photo, but I’m sure the gentleman with the beer belly hanging out of his tank top won’t mind.
