| Grand Canyon Hike South Kaibab Trail & Bright Angel Trail |
|
 |
 |
| The sun is rising and breaking through the clouds during the first hour of my hike down the South Kaibab Trail. I actually started down the trail before the sun came up. It was very cloudy and cold in the early morning hours. The temperature was about 45 degrees. |
 |
| About an hour later most of the clouds had burned away. The trail starts to switchback down the steep rock layer known as the Redwall. |

 |
| My first view of the inner canyon from the section of the trail called "The Tipoff". Even though I'm still high above the Colorado River I can hear the sound of rapids from this point. Also a self-portrait of yours truly, Jim Todt, with the camera held at arm's length. |
