Mule Wrangler

Grand Canyon Trip Day 11: February 20. I hiked the Bright Angel Trail just past 2 mile corner and was on the trail by 8:20 am. The first mile was pretty icy but I felt confident with wearing the micro spikes on my boots. I went a little slower today and was more tired out at the end… I think tomorrow I will rest up & do some laundry.

There is a weather advisory for tomorrow predicting wind speeds of 20-30 MPH with gusts up to 50MPH and also a 40% chance of rain. On Tuesday & Wednesday very cold temp & snow are forecast. I may just have a few rest days!
Just *love* this photo! Fav! From the sounds of the weather forecast, I would say that a few rest days are in order. Take it easy and have a great time! Looking forward to seeing more of your photos of the Canyon.

Lovely light and shadows in the canyon, love the scale of the riders, the diagonal positioning of the trail in the image.
