Soap Creek

Over the weekend we went hiking down Soap Creek. It was the best hike I've been on for years. It was new so it was exploring and there were a couple challenging areas as well which brings in some fun. It is about a 4.5 miles hike to the Colorado River (9 miles round trip) in Marble Canyon. Pretty much the end of the canyons in Marble Canyon fall into Grand Canyon National Park boundaries. So I can say... "Yeah, I hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon." Ha ha! I will do it again. It has boulder hopping, which I rather enjoy, both going down and coming up. It was a full day trip and I hear great fishing at the river from multiple sources, but I don't fish so that's not much of an incentive for me. I was exhausted and sore afterwards but it was well worth it.
