I had aspirations of a third summit on my last day on the north rim, but I was beat up and this area had left a great impression on me two days before, so it was not a hard decision to opt for this pleasant and scenic loop vs another hot sufferfest below the rim. I also had the ulterior motive of taking another look for my hat that I inexplicably lost on the North Canyon Trail on my first day up on the north rim.

I found the scenery and the loop in general to be spectacular. Apart from a little locust on the East Rim Trail, the trails were all in immaculate shape. The perennial section of North Canyon is a nice little gem and you can’t beat the hiking along that section of the AZT.

I did not find my hat, which I found odd. I have been wearing a hat religiously hiking for several years now and have never lost one. This will certainly go down as one of the Canyon´s great mysteries, right up there with the disappearance of the Hydes.
