� � � � � In the Summer of 1985, I took a three-week driving vacation from east coast USA to west coast USA. � One of my stops along the way, was the Grand Canyon in Arizona. � It's more than just a hole in the ground!

� � � � � Here is a view of the Grand Canyon as you begin your hike down the Bright Angel Trail. � The scenery is quite spectacular as you begin the 7.6 mile trip to the bottom. � If you look very close, you can see the Colorado River. � The river marks the bottom of the Grand Canyon.

� � � � � The picture to the right is showing the view as you look across the Grand Canyon as you walk part of the way down.

� � � � � Here is a view of the Grand Canyon, from the bottom looking up. � Cutting through the Grand Canyon, as it has for centuries, is the mighty Colorado River. � The river is cold, deep and very powerful. � After walking the 7.6 miles to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, I soaked my feet in the cold river. � Ahhh that felt good. � Now how am I going to get back up?

� � � �I made it back to the top six hours later. � Gravity made the return trip much more difficult. � It only took me four hours to make it to the bottom.

���� This concludes the picture presentation of my trip to the Grand Canyon. ��As soon as I find more, I will post them.
