Done grand canyon rim to river a few times now. Here is the latest.
We went south kaibab descent w/ one night at bright angel area starting at 6:25 am. Clear skies gave us big temp swings between rim and river. Stone steps were dry by mid-morning but still rough on knees.
Quick scores: overall=5, difficulty=3, views=5
questions welcome.
