| no partners | | Great weekend trip with a few friends. We were able to get a room at Maswick Lodge. Paid for a Xanterra van/taxi ($20) to get to the trailhead a little earlier than the hiker express shuttle (which doesn't start till 7 am this time of year). Hit the trail around 6 a.m. with a full moon overhead. Weather was pretty nice for late November (low 40s to start). Weather in the canyon was fantastic. And we had shade almost the entire hike, even up Devil's Corkscrew. Trail traffic was relatively low, so pretty good solitude for a corridor-trail trip. Maintenance crews were trimming a chopping up some cottonwoods in Bright Angel Campground. It was strange to hear the sound of a chainsaw in the inner canyon.
All in all, a great trip! |
