Itinerary description

Zion- incredibly beautiful day we hiked up to observation point. lovely hike. My acrophobia kicked in a bit, while hiking between waypoints: NW Ravine and View Down the Canyon. The treadway is about 6 feet wide in this area so it is not unsafe. Most folks don't have a problem but I saw one poor girl (20 something) who was terrified. Views along the whole trail is incredible.
