Anyone ever hike in and around the Grand Canyon (Arizona, USA)?
Anyone ever hike in and around the Grand Canyon (Arizona, USA)?
I’d like to do the rim to rim trail sometime in the near future but it certainly sounds like a leg shredder.
I did parts of the south and north rim trails a few years ago, but nothing really intense. Those two trails are either paved or well packed dirt.
I did the hike to the bottom from angels landing with my pops years ago. Lessons learned: spring can be treacherous with snow and ice on the trail. We brought way too much food. It was a great experience though. Dad even sprung for the prepared dinner at the ranch on the canyon floor. Great memories, epic views and a real sense of accomplishment was the true takeaway.
I'd love to try hiking in from the north rim in the future
