Across the Canyon



If you hear about someone hiking across the Grand Canyon, this picture shows the general location of the trail. This section of the Canyon is referred to as the "Corridor" meaning the trails between the North and South Rims of the Canyon. The picture is looking north into Bright Angel Canyon and Roaring Springs Canyon. At the very bottom of the picture to the left of center, you can just see Indian Garden. The prominent trail at the bottom of the picture is a trail the dead ends at Plateau Point. If you hike from Rim to Rim it is about 25 miles and at almost any time the temperatures at the bottom of the Canyon can be very warm to extremely hot.
