早就向往大峡谷的景色,但因上班,总没找到同行者。最后决定自己去走R2R,老婆不放心,决定同往,但因体力不够,她不走峡谷的trail,在大峡谷沿途玩,然后开车从south rim to north rim,大约380公里。两人约好在north rim trailhead parking lot 见面。
May 25。ac589 Toronto 飞phoenix 8:55am- 10:40am。这次租车公司是fox。phoenix 取车,las vegas还车,upgrade to standard SUV加了20,一共$102.no oneway drop charge,到chinatown 买些吃的,开车4hrs 到grand canyon south rim.确认campingsite。然后开车到pipecreek vista 看日落.日落的时间大约7:49pm,瞬间大峡谷色彩变得绚丽多彩,十分华丽,壮观。回到 mother campingground,开始野餐,满天星星相伴。May26 4:30起床,吃完早饭,直奔southkaibab trailhead看日出,日出大约在5:30am 左右,大峡谷再现辉煌,然后我开始了R2R行走,从south kaibab 7200ft走到谷底colorado river 2400ft,bright angel campground 2400ft.然后开始爬升到north rim trail head.8250ft. 共21miles。老婆回到grandcanyon visit center,乘车去hermitsrest route。兵分两路,各自拍了许多照片。我开始 hiking at 5:45am after sunrise.,first stop for food and refill water at cottonwood campground. second stop for water refill at supai tunnel. 5:30pm get north rim trailhead.一共12个小时。下午5:30 pm 在north rim trailhead parking lot 与老婆碰头。到了north rim后,洗了个热水澡,north rim campground 全满,就开车往las vegas,途中在truck rest area 睡了几个小时,幸亏车升级,后座全可放倒,睡得还舒服。今天早上起来后开一个小时到las vegas 还车,去机场。下面我会贴照片来记录大峡谷之行。 |
