Hermit Trail - Grand Canyon

Bob and I returned for our annual Grand Canyon trip to hike the Hermit trail to Boucher Rapids. Temperatures were warmer than we anticipated from the start and the mileage to the rapids was a bit longer than we wanted to tackle. Bob and I decided to turn around at Boucher Creek to conserve water and exit the canyon before it became too hot. This route is slow going as described, and quite steep at times. I really liked it though, especially the solitude. After the campsite near Yuma Point, we didn't see anyone else until we climbed back out and were greeting by the same couple from Flagstaff relaxing at their site.
