  • Started from the South Kaibab trailhead and hiked to the Colorado River. Crossed the Black Bridge and hiked to Phantom Ranch for a cool glass of lemonade. Hiked back across the river on the Silver Bridge and started my journey up on the Bright Angle Trial.
    Warning from the Grand Canyon National Park:
    "Hiking to the river and back in one day is not recommended due to long distance, extreme temperature changes, and an approximately 5,000 foot (1,500 m.) elevation change each way.
    If you think you have the fitness and expertise to attempt this extremely strenuous hike, please seek the advise of a park ranger at the Backcountry Information Center.
    Know how to rescue yourself. You are responsible for your safety and the safety of your family and friends. Rescue is not guaranteed, and assistance may take hours or days due to weather or other emergencies".
    Length: 18 miles
    Elevation gain: 4,948 ft.

    Great to have a quiet, peaceful hiker video without lots of mindless talking. Thanks! Beautiful scenes and peaceful background music. I almost felt like was with you! Thanks!

    Wonderful video of a majestic piece of Gods creation.
    Words can’t describe the canyon in person. This is probably the next best thing so than you!
    September 2019 my significant other and I did this exact same route in the single day. We were both in our early 60’s and hike extensively in the White Mountains of NH. Talk about polar opposites 😆
    Canyon is not technical (at least compared to the Whites) you just need to be VERY respectful of the heat and elevation and prepare accordingly. An honest reality check on your health and fitness if you intend to do this loop in a day.
    We plan to go back, stay at Phantom Ranch, hike up the north side and back down, stay another night at the ranch and back out Bright Angel. I’m a pseudo ultra runner and would like to do the single day R2R2R. I did see a few runners in you video.
    Thanks for sharing this 🙏

      Thank you! Hiking down to the bottom of Grand Canyon is an amazing experience. This is actually my second time hiking to Phantom Ranch and back in one day. It definitely requires some training before attempting to do this hike.
