Connor and I were resting in the dorm waiting for dinner and we had this conversation.
Connor: Do you know what’s cool about being at the bottom of the Grand Canyon other than being at the bottom of the Grand Canyon?
Michael: No.
Connor: Grunt. I was hoping you could help me finish that sentence.
The day we were at the bottom of the Grand Canyon it was 137 degrees in the sun and 116 degrees in the shade. These temperatures are physically dangerous. It was too hot to do anything. There are some nice hikes you can take from the Phantom Ranch. We did not do any of them. When the temperature is this hot, you are basically just waiting for the Sun to go down. Once the Sun goes down, you go to bed to prepare for the next day’s hike.
