After several days of mountain biking in Moab and then Page Arizona, we had arranged to fly Lorissa in from Ottawa and Avery in from Phoenix; to meet us in St. George Utah.
Lorissa actually flew to Phoenix first to fly together with Avery from PHX to SGU. Despite a problem with her flight from YOW to YUL, she made it and we were there to meet them on time!

Today we went high. Observation Point trail as it being a gorgeous weekend the park was packed.
Observation Point is somewhat higher and while missing the danger element of Angels Landing, when the park is crowded, this trail is a better view, without the chaos of the chains.
There are two ways to get to Obersvation Point. Typically we would leave from the bottom of the Canyon and trek up; its a lot of elevation but a nice challenging day hike.
This trail has been wiped out through a series of landslides; not sure when it will reopen.
There is a way to drive around to the East side of the park- via the North Fork Rd, head to the East Mesa/Observation Point Trailhead. It is on Google Maps!
