A father and his teenage kids hiked for over three hours to retrieve an enormous American flag that had flown from a suspension rope across a rocky canyon in Utah but had fallen.

The massive 50-pound (approx. 23-kilogram) flag had been part of an annual Independence Day ceremony in the family’s hometown of Sandy in northern Utah.
