We woke up at 4:00 AM to prepare for the hike. We caught the hikers express to the South Kaibab trail from the Bright Angel Lodge. At the trailhead, we looked down. We are going to the very bottom of this thing.
We left our luggage in the room at the Bright Angel Lodge. The bellman had agreed to go into our room later in the morning and store our luggage until we were back out of the Grand Canyon.
We were equipped for the hike. I had a backpack with clothes and water for both of us. Connor had a 1.5 liter CamelBack. We wore hiking clothes, sunscreen, and hats.
We knew it would be an adventure but we did not realize what we were getting ourselves into. It really did seem like a good idea at the time.
