Grand Canyon

What a place the Grand Canyon is. It was and is a place like I've never seen before. Each view was more beautiful than the last. We all had such great time running over the two days. We ran S-to-N (S. Kaibab-N. Kaibab) on Day 1, then N-to-S (N. Kaibab-Bright Angel) on Day 2. Words can't do it justice; neither will the pictures, but enjoy my feeble attempt.

(Amazing color variation on the South Rim)

(Another amazing view)

(Watch your step; It's a long way down!)

(Nice trail, not so nice camera work)
(Suspension bridge over Colorado: Bright Angel Tr.)


(Heading up Bright Angel) (view back down Bright Angel. . . see ya next time GC!)
The trip to the GC was worth every second of travel and every penny spent. Definitely something that should be on every ultrarunners' bucket list. Here is a good logistical review if you would want to plan your own adventure. . . you should!


  1. AWESOME PICTURES AND VIDEOS, ADAM!!! Glad you guys had a great time!

    take care!


  2. Beautifully, amazingly insane! :) Can't wait to hear more about it. Glad it was such a great trip.

  3. What an adventure. I am sure you boys had a great time. This has been on my bucket list, but now you have made me want to go right now. The pictures and video are just great. I am envious!

  4. Magnificent, Adam. Simply magnificent.

  5. If there was a "jealously" emoticon, I would be typing it here...over and over and over again!
