I'm going into Paria Canyon the end of the month at the Wire Pass entrance. From what I understand there is a significant rock jam along the way. What I want to know if is necessary to carry some climbing rope to get over the jam. Thanks in advance. Tim D

I am planning to hike into the Grand Canyon, North Rim, this coming September. That is if I can get permits. If I can't get the permits does anyone have suggestions for an alternative hike. I am figuring on a three or four day excursion. Thanks in advance. Tim D.

Need some advice. Want to hike into the Grand Canyon from the North rim in the end of next September. Any recommendations for places to stay before hike. Thinking of trying to get a permit at Cottonwood campground, then going to Phantom Ranch/Bright Angel campground and then hiking out to the South ...

Thanks for the ifo. I just want to know how can I do them all in two days? Tim

I could use a little advice, I'm going to be in the Phoenix area the end of Sept. I'd like to do a two day hike, within an hour or so of Phoenix. Although I'd go further if it's worth it. I'd appreciate your two cents, anyone. Thanks in advance. Tim D

I would like an informed opinion. I am camping out at Havasu canyon this April. I was wondering

This gives me a good start, thanks again. Tim

I'm planning to hike into the grand canyon this coming april. I'd like to know how much foot traffic I'm likely to find? I'm thinking of going down to BA campground, staying a night or two. Any recommendations concerning such a trip?

Just thought I'd make a recommendation. Boynton Canyon just outside Sedona is a terrific hike. About three miles out and back. It's worth the trip, particularly when you get to the end of the canyon. Good hiking! Tdada
