Album Campsites

.... we have lots of stories to share when we meet next fall. :)
So, we will do the usual thing? You head west in September, we go south in October whenever the weather turns cooler here, and without any prior arrangement, we meet at some random trailhead in the desert. Sounds like a done deal! :D

Looking west at camp at the confluence of Escalante Creek and the Colorado River, Grand Canyon National Park (February, 2020).

Dug this one up as I'm kicking around a 4-night trip back to a similar area next March, perhaps to check out the Little Colorado confluence.

That brings back some good memories. Camped there back in 2016 during a Grand Canyon hike.

We spent 7 days below the rim that trip, heading down from Lipan Point on the Tanner Trail, turning west along the Escalante route, and then up and out the Tonto Trail to Bright Angel the last week of February 2020 - pretty much the last thing I did in a pre-pandemic world. That camp was night #2 before the legs really started barking, and was absolutely my favorite of the trip (with night #5 at Lone Tree and the view looking northeast a close second).

We did 6 days from Lipan Point to Grandview Point. Every campsite was excellent along the way. I'd love to make it back down there someday and perhaps explore a more remote or even off trail part of the canyon.
