The South Kaibab trailhead is located east of
the Grand Canyon Village. To get there, you
can ride a shuttle, or you can get dropped off near but not at the trailhead.
Hiking down the South Kaibab, west along the
Tonto, and back out along the Bright Angel is a strenuous hike covering about 13
miles and taking you down and then up 3,000 feet in elevation. It is about
as much of a hike as one can realistically do in one day. |
 |
| One last photo, of everyone
together, just before starting the hike. In case anyone didn't
make it out, this would be the last official record of their existence. |

| Goodbye, guys. |
|
They're down there somewhere.
Good! That's just that much more room in the van for the rest of
us. |

| If you want to move them,
move them. In my opinion, though, these are ok right where they
are. |

You can see one of the bridges over the
Colorado River in this shot. |
| |
|
|
 |
| I left this one a little larger so you
can see the boats tied up on the shore of the river along with the
bridge off to the right. |

| They're spelling out O-H-I-O. I
just now figured that out! |
