“Since 2004, six people have died falling from the cliffs on this route.” is what the sign says. Only one step from a 1400 foot fall.

Angels Landing from David Perry on Vimeo.

Seth Dixon‘s insight:

Angel’s Landing in Utah’s Zion National Park (map) is one of my favorite hikes with an amazing view.The geomorphology of ‘red rock’ country is stunning and it’s sheer cliffs are bound to captivate the imagination.  If you want something like this but with a more European flavor, watch National Geographic’s Andrew Evans climb Preikestolen in Norway.
