If you are staying multiple days in Zion National Park, The Narrows is definitely a trail you should consider doing. It is super easy and a lot of fun, and a very different day out than your average trail run.
From sweeping views into the canyon below, through corridors of rock or Ponderosa Pine Angels Landing and the West Rim of Zion National Park are one of the best trail runs I have ever done.
Another great weekend of adventure running and this time to the amazing Falls Creek Cave, on the Falls Creek Falls trail in Skamania County, Washington. Just a 90-minute drive from downtown Portland, through Carson city, WA and into the beautifully mystic Gifford Pinchot National Forest, lies the soft, loamy and easy trail of Falls Creek Falls.
Climbing the Stairway to Heaven, or the Haiku Stairs, as it is officially named, has been on my bucket list since the early days of Instagram and Pinterest. I would lay awake at night scrolling through photos of people brave enough to climb the mountain and hike the stairs all the way up the volcano crater of the Ko’olau Range to the top of the rim overlooking the famed Haiku Stairs.
