 |
| Look at those views.... |
 |
| Beautiful as the sun is setting on the canyon! |
 |
| We found this cave at the bottom. Aren't we cool. |
 |
| Eating our Mountain house meal. I accidentally brought a FAMILY-SIZE (feeds 5) meal by accident. Good thing it was relatively LIGHT! |
 |
| One of my favorite photos from the trip - my new signature hiking pose (& Angela's too??) |
 |
| We hiked along the Colorado River for a lot of the trip & it was breathtaking! |
 |
| One of the only photos of Angie & I as we were hiking out |
 |
| Angela as we were hiking out in the morning |
 |
| We stayed at the "Bright Angel Campsite" and hiked in on S. Kaibab Trail (7 miles downhill) and then out on the "Bright Angel Trail" (9 miles uphill) |
 |
| Seriously tho- look at that view!! You can kind of see the sun coming in on the canyons behind me! |
 |
| I loved the minty-green desert vegetation! |
 |
| As we were hiking out. It was pretty warm for most of the trip. |
 |
| Angela (7 months prego) about 1/3 of the way up! |
 |
| I was surprised at how beautiful and lush some of the Grand Canyon was - for January! |
 |
| About half way done (mileage-wise) but not elevation-wise! ;) |

| Resting on a rock. |

Thank you for giving me a vicarious exprience down the Grand Canyon via these pictures. I'm happy that it was a safe and positive experience for you both. It looks like the scenery was really breathtaking! I can't believe you hiked 7 miles down and 9 miles back up! That's a LOT of hiking to do so quickly!
ReplyDeleteAMAZING shots! I love the one of the 2 of you… you kinda look alike in it. :) You must have taken a different trail than Ang & I took at the bottom of the canyon cause I don't think we followed the Colorado that much. Ah, these pics are so beautiful. I have to admit, I'm jealous! Looks like a blast!
ReplyDeleteOne word: AWESOME!!!
