Day 5 Hualapai Hilltop, Seligman, and Grand Canyon - Page 3 - elf1's Photos

On Day 5, we rose before 5 a.m. and headed back up the 8 miles of trail and 2000 feet to Hualapai Hilltop. I was determined to get there before it got hot, so the camera got put away, and I took no photos till we got to the top and started celebrating. Then drove to Grand Canyon South Rim, set up camp, watched the sunset, and got very cold very quickly. It was near freezing and it hailed around dinnertime.

elf1 > Of all the things that it never occurred to me to bring--because it was going to be HOT, remember?--was hot chocolate. So I bought some of that at the general store, too. Boy, was it good.
