I arrived back to my hometown at 3 AM this morning and have been busy getting ready to head back to school tomorrow and wishing I was still out west. I just thought I'd share a few of the photos - we saw some absolutely stunning areas. I won't bore you with the million stories from the trip - just the basics. I've already got the tales from the trip down the Grand Canyon up on my blog and will be adding some of the other hikes soon, so check there (link at the bottom of my sig) if you so desire.
Here goes.
Stop number two following a relative uneventful night in Phoenix, AZ was the Grand Canyon. We hiked the Bright Angel trail down, camped at the bottom, and hiked back to the rim the following day. Doing the 20 miles with over 20 pounds on my back in two days was enough to make me walk like a penguin for the next five, but it was absolutely worth it. One word: magnificent.
