Thru-hiker perspective on Colorado River Grand Canyon.
We went Lees Ferry to Diamond Creek full trip starting at 5:10 AM. Summer was hot, shoulder seasons ideal. River miles measured progress, not trail.
Grateful for this one.
Quick notes:
- Know where water is.
- Share beta when asked.
- Wave at other hikers.
- Tell someone your plan.
- Move over for faster hikers.
