Hoodoo…you do..remind me of a babe… Bryce Canyon Trip
Another thing that Bryce is famous for is its most extensive collection in the world of Hoodoos. They formed over millions of years of erosion. There is a famous Native American Story of how these Hoodoos were created. The short version of this story is the Coyote God, who oversaw the land and had invited the Legend People to a grand feast. These people were known to be selfish and abused the land. Legend people dressed to the nines and painted their faces for the feast. But before the Legend People started to gorge on the food, the Coyote God cast a spell on them and turned them into stone. Ones who didn't turn into stone tried to escape by climbing on top of each other until they turned into stone, which is why hoodoos, cling to the sides of the cliffs. Or maybe it's nature, I guess we won't ever know!
Zion and Narrows Tips and Tricks
My tips and tricks for Zion National Park and hiking the Narrows.
Hiking The Narrows in Zion National Park
Finally, I reached Wall Street, the famous part of the hike. This is where the walls of the canyon tower 1500 feet tall, and it’s the narrowest, with the river only being 22 feet wide. Once I passed this section, I hung out at the riverbank, enjoying the view. I kept looking up at the sky because the sun was finally out, and it was a bright blue sky with some white clouds. It made the rocks stand out even more. I was chatting with a few people as I was asked to take a couple of pictures of them. I heard one of them talking about this Floating Rock up from Wall Street. Floating Rock is another stopping point on this hike. It is a giant boulder that looks like it is floating on the river. My curiosity peaked, and I kept hiking after getting some pictures of myself at Wall Street. I went to Floating Rock, and then I turned around and headed back. Looking back now, I should have continued to Big Springs; it’s about another 1-1.5 miles down; this was the last point before you had to turn around because the rest of the Narrows needed a permit.

How to Empower Yourself: The Magic of Solo Travel
We tend to forget we are a person, too. We don't take enough time to learn who we are. I believe it’s because we don't want to face ourselves. This is where solo traveling, or solo fill-in-the-blank, can help. For example, I thought I needed a big group of friends to feel complete, or I needed people to go on a hike or a paddleboard adventure, but I don't. At times I think that if I keep doing things on my own, I will never want someone to come with me.
