2014 Grand Canyon NP — Corridor Trail
The Grand Canyon was the first of 3 national parks we went backpacking in this year. We also did take a virgin backpacker with us on this trip. Every view in this park looks like a movie backdrop. Since this was our first trip here, we stuck to the corridor trail. We went in late February which is the ideal time to go: no snakes, no crowds, pleasant temperatures in the canyon (70s to low 80s during the day). The corridor trails are almost highways being so wide and well maintained. We also discovered Phantom Ranch sells alcohol to the public.
