We just finished 2 days in the backcountry. By far the most amazing backpacking trip we've ever taken. Essentially You hike from the source of the virgin river where it appears to look like any east coast river down through Zion canyon where it cuts through 1000 foot cliffs of red rock. Amazing. The going was slow. As Jeanette said, the 13 miles felt more like 26. This was due to the continuous river crossings in some areas 5 feet deep. It was a great start to our trip from an outdoors point of view and taxed us physically. We will sleep well tonight.
