Cedar Ridge is about 1.5 miles down the South Kaibab trail This is usually the first place hikers stop to rest. Anyone attempting a short dayhike should turn around and hike back up from this point. After examining the view, that is. On a clear day, you can see for miles from Cedar Ridge. As luck would have it, we did not hike on a clear day. But, as Jim, my unbelievably optimistic hiking guide put it, we got to see a view that is seldom seen. Instead of a clear view across the canyon, we saw it covered in thick white clouds , which gave it a foggy and almost mystical quality. At first, I kept wishing for the other view. The one often seen in postcards with the bright sunny skies. The one I'd spent a couple of years dreaming about. But, when you pause and take in the beauty of the canyon and allow the wonder of it all to sink in, you start to realize that there are no bad days out here.

There are many opportunities for hiking into Grand Canyon. Some trails of course are more difficult than others. Warnings are posted everywhere- BE CAREFUL! Every year there are accidents and even fatalities. As for me, I preferred just sitting on this wall. Leave a Comment
