Walking the rim in both directions is a good way to spend your first day at the canyon, getting a sense of the place and getting used to the altitude. To hike partway down into the canyon, you coul dtake either of the two main trail. The Bright Angel trail leaves from the lodge area, and has lots of mule traffic. You can walk down as far as you like and then turn around. If you are not experienced hikers, a mile or two would be plenty; don't try to reach Indian Garden (the broad flat area you can see from the rim) South Kaibab trail is reached by a shuttle bus, and is less traveled by mules, although you may stil encounter a mule train or three. This trail is a bit steeper but offers great views. Most dayhikers go as far as Cedar Ridge, 1. 5 miles down the trail, before turning around. Mule rides: they only offer two kinds at the South Rim---the 6-hour ride down to Plateau Point and back, and the overnight trip to Phantom Ranch. Here is the webpage with information and prices: IF you are able to get reservations for the overnight trip to Phantom Ranch, it is a fantastic way to experience the canyon.
You will recall the sickly Miss Anne de Bourgh that Elizabeth Bennet (played by GODDESS Jennifer Ehle) smirks at as a fitting future mate to Mr. Darcy. Well, this book is HER book, Anne's story, and it is poetic and lovely and beautiful and progressive (YEP! ) and you will fall in love with Anne, seeing her in a wonderful and new light. You might even find a smidgeon of pity for Lady Catherine de Bourgh, but only the barest smidgeons. This is fan fiction done in just the best way! Enjoy! More Staff Picks + Staff Picks Nomadland The summary of this movie (based on the book by Jessica Bruder) needs to be given some more love. I really don't think that one can sum up all of the moving parts of this narrative by simply stating it's about van life or being nomadic. Lead actress McDormand crafts an unforgettable character as Fern, who may or may not have been running from things her whole life. Fabulous cinematography and you will recognize some of these places and how important they are for migrant and seasonal labor.
