So here is the thing about Grand Canyon Rim to River...
We went Bright Angel down to river camps with a South Kaibab exit starting at 6:00 AM. Rim started cold and the canyon floor warmed up by late morning. Upper switchbacks held some icy patches before sun hit them.
Still thinking about this one.
