Straight talk about Bright Angel Campground. We went Bright Angel Trail down to Bright Angel Camp starting at 6:50 AM. Summer heat made inner canyon challenging. Water stations available on popular routes. Ratings: 4 overall, 4 difficulty, 5 scenery. TLDR: Poles help more than you think. Do your homework first.
