By now, we have long stopped taking pictures of the scenery. We are really focused on getting out. The National Park has played a cruel trick on hikers here. To get to the rest area and the water, you have to hike up a flight of steps. It was difficult but we did it.
From here to the exit, it was brutal. We were so tired and our legs hurt. We would walk for a minute and rest for thirty seconds. We were in the shade for the last 1.5 miles. We wanted to rest longer but could see the Sun was creeping up behind us. We were basically on a race with the Sun to exit the Grand Canyon and the Sun was winning.
