Wild Horse Canyon

After leaving Goblin Valley the two girls fell asleep in the car. My dad voluntered to stay back while they slept and the rest of us hiked up Wild Horse Canyon, which is 10 minutes from Goblin. This canyon is compared to the Narrows in Zion's.

The side of the canyons go up real high, it becomes very narrow, and there are lots of twists and climbing of rocks.


To allow other fellow hikers to pass Evan Rude had to climb the walls. Thankfully for me and my mom we found a little cove we could sneak into to let them pass.


Sporting the narrowness of the way


Jenn walked into this narrow section. The rest of us commented how it looked like a part off of the movie Lord of the Rings. The last movie as they enter the canyon to talk with the ghosts.



At one of the big rooms before heading onto the next narrow section. On our way back Steve-o and I decided to get it over with faster and to jog back. We were all tired from walking around Goblin Valley and running actually felt better on our legs.While going back through the narrow sections a bat came out of no where. While Kaden was trying to get a picture I kept screaming as it was flying at us. HILARIOUS and scary, YES! The bat flew at us 5-6 times and got REAL close. Thankfully the little bugger didn't land on us.
