As a sub-part of the Hermit Loop -
11/3/2008 - As I had planned-in a layover day @ Indian Gardens we decided to head to Phantom Ranch for a few cool, adult beverages and some knock-down-drag-out card games. A few of us felt as if we'd be 'wimps' if we just headed down the BA to Phantom, so we decided to add a few miles by taking the Tonto over to South Kaibab and then down (still wimpy, but not AS wimpy). With its sweeping views of Isis Temple, Bright Angel Canyon and Zoroaster, as well as the springs found along the way, this is some terrific hiking. This trail seems to be getting more use than it did a few years ago and is in fine shape.
