| no partners | | Second ultra Grand Canyon dayhike of the season, this one on the North Bass Trail. Weather was near perfect, except no clouds for shade/photos. Only saw a group of 2 guys all day - no one even at the river. With all the vegetation and creek crossings it was slower hiking than I had planned, and then I took over 250 images. So, a longer day in the canyon than I had hoped for, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. ; ) .
I took the direct route to the river, utilizing the Tonto Bypass. After lunch at the river, came around and up lower Shinumo. Then opting for the lower White Canyon narrows on the way up. Chose to forgo the planned out-and-back of upper Shinumo as I wasn't moving as fast as expected. See pic of map for route taken.
(29.87Miles/ 7,324' AEG. 16:13 Total Time, 12:22 Moving, 3:51 Stopped)
That's it for my training for, and completion of, these two Grand Canyon ultra dayhikes. Back to photographing for my Digital Landscape Portfolio - still many places on the shoot list. So, probably won't be posting much on here, but will continue to follow you all - Happy Trails! |
