JUST BACK

L.A. Times Archives

Just returned from the Grand Canyon, from a night at Phantom Ranch. Reached it by hiking 7 miles and 4,700 feet down the South Kaibab Trail. After a steak dinner, a good sleep and breakfast, I returned to the south rim via the Bright Angel Trail. As I think upon it now, I marvel at the millenniums of sediments I walked past.
