Zion National Park Running / Traverse / Crossing - (Southeast to Northwest)

Here's a little recap video of my buddy and I doing the Zion Traverse on Oct 8, 2011. It'll give you a decent idea of what the extremely varied terrain is like. JT ran from the East Entrance up to Lee Pass, while I joined in at the Grotto 10'ish miles into the run. The full traverse is 48.3 (according to other runners). I hopped in at 9:04am, and as you'll see in the video, we ended our run at 7:29pm. Took a few breaks here and there, including one that was about 25 mins long. We also missed two turns, adding about 35 mins (2.5 - 3 miles to our day)
