I thought I was going on a nice mapped out trail with my Dad. I should've known better. The goal was to go from Kolob Reservoir all the way down to LaVerkin Creek and out Hop Valley. However, my dad didn't know how to get to a trail he's run before. So we ran through the woods and tried to find a safe route to LaVerkin creek. Unfortunately we found a tough route. Tons of thorns and big drops. At one point I was using my Dads leg to pull me up a cliff side as he was holding onto a bush. Ran into a Rattlesnake as well. I was bummed we spent several hours bush whacking, meaning when we actually got to decent trails it would be hot. Climbing out Hop Valley was really hot and Sandy. We survived. I wish I would've spent my Saturday on a better running route. Now I'm super sore and cut up from an adventure with Ross. 14.33 miles
