"So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life."

Loop through GC and GGGreat loop! Golden Canyon is definitely more scenic than Gower Gulch.

ScenicOne of the top tourist hikes in the western U.S. I've added some scrambling spice on a few of my trips in the Golden Canyon-Zabriskie Point realm.

Decent CanyonI'm glad Gimpilator talked us into going to this canyon which had many neat formations. One could spend days here traveling through all the different formations and ridges.

Gorgeous CanyonHiked up to the base of the Red Cathedral via Golden Canyon. It was already very hot (>100F). My first time in this canyon but so many things to explore here. Will be back.

Outstanding!!!Been here 3 times now. This is by far the most awesome canyon I have ever seen. All the different colors and formations make it very stimulating for the eyes. The most fun I had here was running up all the side gullies, scrambling over loose rocks and squeezing my way up through small chimneys. Take the time ro climb Manly Beacon and Red Cathedral. They're worth it.

Many TimesFirst time was back in 1996, my first hiking in the West. I've been up Manly Beacon three times, Red Cathedral twice, some unnamed formations, and through both canyons as well as some of the side canyons. Beautiful place, always something new to discover.

Beautiful Place!We enjoyed this canyon & exploring the side canyons. I was nervous watching Geoff scramble on some of the rock, er congealed mud, but he enjoyed it. Hiking there was like walking through geoloical time.
