Grand Canyon Rim to River prep notes: We went North Kaibab to inner canyon camp w/ a next-day climb out starting at 5:10 AM wind on exposed ridges eased after sunrise and made pacing simple. Main corridor tread was firm and easy to follow all day. Key considerations: Know the signs of altitude. Plan accordingly.
