I haven't, but would love that!
I've walked to the bottom of it twice years ago. A group of us went the first time and we stayed in a campground in tents. Roughing it. I'd rather glamp it. 😄

@Magenta how was the walk down? i heard it is brutal?
Magenta · F
@akindheart I don't remember it being brutal. But the walking back up was the rough part, especially the first trip, mostly because we didn't bring enough water, ugh. Talk about exercise. We stopped and took little breaks.

There’s a lodge where you can stay at the bottom of the canyon.

@akindheart Most of the places in the park are a year. Same with Yosemite and Yellowstone.

@akindheart If you go to Grand Canyon go to the north side.

I have roughed it, lived outdoors, and glamped but not at the big ditch and never in a cabin tent before. Best of luck.

Let's get you a Teddy Roosevelt 12-man round tent with complete iron pots, pans and hangers set-up.
After that high leather boots, and jodpurs if you're going all the way. Dang, the life of an expedition......I'm envious.

@Freeranger LOL. you crack me up. As for Teddy, i didn't know much about him but after I watched his story on history channel, he was quite the guy. I don't know if i can afford to glamp much but that seems to be the perfect place. I have hiking boots and snake gaiters...does that count?

You better be careful. I watched a video of a young man who camped down next to the river on a sandbar. He was met by a rattlesnake next to the trail as he was going down the canyon. And wearing sandals.

@cherokeepatti omg...i better take my snake gaters
