Brian's Adventures
Got to Grand Canyon late on after a never ending drive from vegas. This was the first time we were roughing it in the tents, weather was warm during the day but it didn't half drop during the night, how I longed for morning to come. Anyway, when we arrived we set up camp then set off for the GC to catch the sunset. The first glimpses of the GC blow you away, it so diffuct to explain & understand the size of the thing unless you are there. Sunset was very special, a good bit of group bonding. Back to camp and that night we had a good old fashioned bbq over the fire with toasted marshmallows for dessert.
I was looking forward to the morning for another reason...a chopper ride over the GC. A spur of the moment decision to do it but a once in a lifetime opportunity not to miss. Going in a helicopter was exciting enough but to see the GC from a different view point (the best view point) was amazing and something I will never forget.
After that it was off to our next destination, Colorado River National Park...or so we thought!
