Grand Canyon Arizona June 28th 2012

Grand Canyon Arizona

We began our journey down the trail in the morning around 10:00.  We wanted to get an earlier start but with all the traveling we had done lately we were all little tired and didn't get out there as early as we had hoped.  When traveling with kids it's sometimes hard to get them going when you want to, but the earlier you get out there the better since it does get pretty hot! 
When hiking the trails you need to make sure you are prepared you should always take plenty of water, some snacks include high energy snacks, along with some salty snacks, sunscreen, a hat, and proper hiking shoes, a map of the trails,  a phone in case of emergency and you should always let someone know where you are going and stick to that path do wander off of it.





We started out our hike on the South Rim Trail.



































We hiked for about an hour and a half down the trail and then turned around.





  














After hiking the South Rim Trail we headed back to our hotel to get some lunch and rest up for the next hike.  



 


We headed back out to hike Bright Angel Trail.
