TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE (Hiking Angels Landing Hike in Zion National Park, Utah)

Angels Landing Trail in Zion National Park, Utah is famous partially for its incredible views, and partially because of the terrifying half mile section where you’re hanging off the side of the mountain holding on to only a chain. Warning: this hike is not for the faint of heart. If you have a crippling fear of heights, you’d better pass on this one. Thankfully neither of us have crazy fears of heights. Spoiler alert: it might have taken us two tries to complete it, but we did finally finish the trail and man oh man was it worth it! Hands down one of the most beautiful hikes we’ve ever done!
Life doesn’t always give you second chances at opportunities, but we’re thankful just this once we were given an opportunity to try again. Angels Landing is a crazy and incredible hike that we highly recommend. Just please be careful and respect those around you! Go prepared, take your time, and enjoy the views from Angels Landing.

I lived in Southern Utah over 30 years and have been to Zion hundreds of times. I have heard so many people say how amazing the Angels Landing hike is, but I am deathly afraid of heights. But when I turned 40 I decided to face one of my biggest fears and attempt the hike. My best friend took me. I was so terrified going up, but she kept me going. The view is so amazing and will forever be seared in my mind. I am so grateful I finally went. The hike down was so much worse for me. The sandstone is slippery and when you pass people someone has to let go of the chain to pass. I cried the whole way down...how embarrassing!! But Im still thrilled I did it.

Yep - even Alex Honnold when he started his climb without any ropes changed his mind when got about 20 feet up. He called off the climb as at a gut level he didn't feel things were right. Some days later he completed the climb.

One of the most important things you say in this video is that you trust yourself but you don't trust other people on the last part of that climb. I did it earlier this year and folks were being ridiculous and impatient. It's an experience that can be easily ruined by that type of stuff. Safety first, at all times ✌🏻 Congrats on making it to the top. It's worth it in the end

Congratulations on getting it done on your second try. I attempted the final section some years ago. I was doing good until someone on the other side of the chains bumped into me. My heart rate immediately went to about 150 beats per minute. When I got my heart rate under control, I turned around and went back. I have always regretted not giving it another try. Way to go!

Sometimes people should listen to their fear. I don't honestly think she should have taken on this hike- though I guess I am happy for her that she can cross it off her list. She just wasn't confident and if she slipped I don't think she would have been able to hang on. Her grip looked very weak.

I went three years ago, around the 4th of July holiday. It was 105 degrees, and I was about to undergo spinal fusion a few weeks later, so my balance was so-so. I realized as I got halfway along the trail, with hordes of people climbing over me, or trying to take selfies, that it was not the smartest thing to be doing at that point. I vowed to go back and finish it, but I'm starting to think that, if I never check this off my bucket list, I'll still be able to live with myself.

Way to go!! I've done Half Dome and I'm much more afraid of Angel's landing! I've tried it once and turned back about the same place you did, after the first section of chains. Way too many people (some that were very impatient) too windy and the fact that we had 3 young teens with us had me making the wise decision to turn back. I hope to get back someday and conquer this fear!

Honestly, it was even a bit small bit challenging to watch you two around those chains, etc. I also agree with you on your comment about TMP - Too Many People. You were wise to toss our your pride and try the next day. now, next on my list is the Dome - so I will look for your youtube on the Dome hike... I hope can find it. BE CAREFUL! things can happen in your own living room, ya know... example: slipping on your dog's pee and breaking a bone! :-)

I went there just today, and to anyone experienced with hiking rocky terrain, this isn’t so bad. If you have no fear of heights, or are trying to overcome that fear, please come to the angels landing! Keep in mind that the hike up to the angels landing is already tedious, so bring lots of food and water. I didn’t wear the proper gear, and my feet were blistering like crazy. We had to go back because everyone was cramping. The view is worth all that paranoia! Don’t bring anyone who you could worry about (kids, pets) because that will ruin the experience.

I stayed at Zion National Park in 2002, and everyday, twice a day, I would run from the valley floor up to the top of Angel’s Landing. It part of processing a very hard life event and something about that valley helped. I’ll never forget a huge rainstorm that came through there and the sides of the valley began to be dotted with multiple waterfalls. I went pre season which is always the best time to avoid big crowds.

I am 67 years old now. When I was 8 years old, my family had a big family reunion in Zions. We did the Angles Landing hike ON HORSES! They used to have riding stables there and they led groups up there all the time! Going back several times since then as an adult, I cannot believe that anyone would ride horses up that thing to the top! What were my parents thinking??? A few weeks after we got home, my Mother told me that the guide who had led us up there, that his horse had bolted and they both went off the cliff and were killed.. I would NEVER let a child ride a horse up Angles Landing! I still have dreams about it occasionally!

@aliox1941 Жыл бұрын

Just to be clear, we rode horses up the exact way you hike up there now, to the top. Obviously we did not ride horses where the chains are at the very top, but had lunch at the top flat part just before the chains, then rode back down again. When I look at those steep switchbacks just before the top now, I just cringe thinking we were on horses going up those! It was terrifying!

@chrisandsara Жыл бұрын

Oh my gosh! 😳 I can’t imagine riding horses up that!! You’re definitely braver than I am! That’s a crazy and sad story about the guide, too. Definitely stay safe out there. Zion is incredibly beautiful but those drop offs are frightening.

@@chrisandsara Well, I was 8 years old and just followed the family. There were probably 10 horses at a time, pretty mellow horses I recall (thank heaven). The guide had a more feisty white horse and as I had said earlier, his horse went over the cliff with him a few weeks later my mother said was in the news. Very sad. But it should never have been allowed! It is dangerous enough on foot but to ride a horse up those cliffs and switchbacks to the top, insane!

For me, it’s a nice rock scramble/ish. I enjoyed it. Much more interesting than some regular hikes. Also I got a permit for half dome, and I really enjoyed that too. I like half dome better because of the great scenery’s, the mental and challenge up half dome, and the waterfalls. Glad you gave it a second go!

@pd4682 Жыл бұрын

Steep steep falloffs on both sides can easily freak you out. Next get a permit to hike the subway in Zions. Hiking with fewer people because permits required. Minor repelling, ropes required, the best part where you have to swim underwater to get through a hole. Lots of slot canyons keeps you in the shade and lots of hiking through the river. Awesome..i love Utah

Just added that to my hiking bucket list! As usual- great video guys…7 out of 10 (not enough Kramer)

Half dome chains seem so difficult! but about to do this hike and one of the worries I have is the amount of people on the chains. Hopefully with the permit, it isn't too bad!

I did it back in May.. The trick to me was to never look down. Just look at the next step in front of you. But now you have the memory! So many great hikes in Southern Utah. I love that part of the country. Perfect climate....
