Getting to the Bottom of A Big Thing

We finally hiked down to the bottom of Grand Canyon! This was our third visit to the National Park and each time we didn't have the right equipment with us. It was a super hot day, the day we hiked down the South Kaibab Trail, but the desert flowers were beginning to bloom and it is a marvelous trail. It's not even all that hard on the knees. We spent two nights at Bright Angel Campground, saw the famous Phantom Ranch, had a couple of nice hikes while down at the bottom and hiked out via the Bright Angel Trail on a day that was mercifully cool. Hurrah!
