Some guidance for anyone planning Bright Angel Campground.
We went South Kaibab to Bright Angel for variety starting at 6:25 AM. Inner canyon warmer than rim, plan layers. Corridor trails well-maintained and signed.
Key considerations: Tape hot spots before they blister.
The boring prep stuff matters.
Tips
- Move over for faster hikers.
- Wave at other hikers.
- Break in boots at home.
- Extra socks change everything.
- Tape hot spots before they blister.
