This family's experience:

Activities: We started our day at White Pocket. We walked over the sandstone formations and admired the colors in the sunlight.

Highlights: We were all completely thrilled. We felt like we discovered a piece of earth that hardly anyone knows. It was a perfect mix of adventure, natural experience and family moment. It felt like a huge adventure playground that nature had created ✨
