Day 46 - May 1, 2008

Today we hiked the Emerald Pools Trails. This was a moderately strenuous 2.5 mile trail. Frank and I have been getting quite a bit of exercise and making better food choices during our "Big Adventure". Consequently we are losing some weight which is a very good thing. Our goal is to lose a pound a week and we are on track with losses of 6 - 8 pounds each.

Tomorrow is our last full day at Zion. Frank plans to do the extremely strenuous Angels Landing Trail. I am very concerned about this. Will give you an update tomorrow.
