Kanab Condo (July 28-Aug 2, 2014)
Instead of camping this year, we rented a 3 bedroom condo in Kanab, UT and used that as our base for day trips across northern Arizona and southern Utah.
This map shows an overview of the different spurs we took while staying in Kanab.
We didn't take a lot of pictures here, since we've been here before, but the girls did get their junior ranger badges.
Our next stop was Horseshoe Bend outside of Page, AZ
Kanab Trip Days 2-3 - Zion, Grand Canyon, and Pipe Springs
Day 2: Zion National Park
The next morning, we drove to Zion National Park. We pulled off at the different scenic overlooks.
We also decided to exlore the Emerald Pools trail in more depth.Day 3: Grand Canyon National Park (North Rim)
It was a bit warm today, so we decided to visit the north rim of the Grand Canyon. We packed a picnic and headed out for the day.
Our first stops were to all the scenic overlooks of the canyon.

Kanab Trip Day 4 - Bryce and Kodachrome Basin
We got an early start this morning and drove to Bryce Canyon.
Kanab Trip Day 5 - Little Hollywood and Grand Staircase Escalante
After several really busy days visiting the nearby parks, we had a slow relaxing morning. We started with some time at the pool in the morning, so they girls could play and relax.
Around mid-morning, we decided to check out the Little Hollywood Museum in Kanab to learn more about the western movies that were filmed in the area.
We had fun exploring the different sets and playing with the various props.
After lunch, we ventured off the paved roads and drove the Jeep through Grand Staircase - Escalante National Monument.
We splashed through a few puddles.
At one point, we got a little stuck in soft sand/dirt of the road and spun the tires for a while.
Towards the end of the day, a storm moved into the area, and there was a lot of lightning.
We drove quickly and made it back to the paved road right as the rain started.Kanab Trip Day 6 - Toadstool Hoodoos, Glen Canyon, and home
This morning it was time to pack up and drive home.
Our first stop was at Toadstool Hoodoos, not too far from Kanab.
Our final stop of the trip was at Glen Canyon Dam for a bathroom and stretch break.
And then it was time to finish our drive back home.
