stuff you need to know

More info and details will be included in emails.

Everyone is welcome, as always. However, to be a part of the group that descends into the canyon, you must attend at least half of the group training hikes we do between June and October. Keep in mind that you may shorten the distance and turn around anytime on your own. 


The guided group hike will go all the way to the bottom of the Canyon and back in a day, for a total of 20 miles, with more than 5000 feet of elevation gain on the return to the rim. Plan on cool temps at the beginning and end of the hike and 80s in the interior/Phantom Ranch, the latter of which will seem hotter as most of Bright Angel trail is exposed. 


To do the full-length trip -- to the river and back -- you'll need a 1.5 liter hydration pack, hiking or running clothes and shoes, hat, buff or bandana, sunscreen, sunglasses and plenty of salty, high-calorie snacks, small first aid kit. Bring money to buy a treat down at Phantom Ranch.  Gear, clothing and food recommendations will be provided in emails.


Yes, there are restrooms and water sources at 1.5-Mile Resthouse, 3-Mile Resthouse, Indian Garden (4.5 miles) and Phantom Ranch. (Distances are from Bright Angel trailhead.)
