Hiking the Grand Canyon I spent 5 years traveling America and have been to 40 states. I kept a detailed journal of my travels. One of my favorite places I visited was the Grand Canyon. My husband and I took an 18-mile day hike. We spent the night in Flagstaff and arrived early at the South Rim entrance.

…showed last 75 words of 1139 total…seen some of the rock formations before in pictures, but the splendor of the real thing is unbelievable. We arrived at the top just as the sun went down.

When you hike into the Canyon you come to fully appreciate the awesomeness of it.
