Day 5 Indian Garden to Rim |
Today's route stats: Distance: 4.8 miles Elevation Gain: 3100 feet Elevation Loss: 0 feetToday was our last day and the final climb to the rim. Although 3100 feet is a lot of elevation gain, the trail is gradual and wide. And there is water in two places on the way. We met a small mule trail heading down to Phantom Ranch, which was interesting for Brianna to see as we didn't see any on the South Kaibab Trail. Except for Brianna's injured leg, the trip was a great success.
