2-day on Grand Canyon Rim to River. Key observations below.
Route: Bright Angel down to river camps w/ a South Kaibab exit. Weather: Clear skies gave us big temp swings between rim and river.. Trail: Main corridor tread was firm and easy to follow all day.. Water: Tap lines moved quickly, still worth filling before exposed climbs.. Crowds: moderate.
Do your homework first.
Tips
- Mark key waypoints.
- Trust the cairns.
