Description
The Bright Angel Trail is a hiking trail in Grand Canyon National Park. The trail originates at the Grand Canyon Village on the south rim of Grand Canyon, descending 4380 feet to the Colorado River with an average grade of 10% along its entire length. At trail's end, the River Trail continues another 1.9 miles to the Bright Angel Campground and Phantom Ranch. These two trails combined are the most common method used to access Phantom Ranch by hikers and mules.
Two trails cross or join the Bright Angel Trail, the first being an intersection with the Tonto Trail at Indian Garden, leading toward the Monument Use Area to the west, and to the South Kaibab Trail 4.7 miles to the east. The second is the River Trail, which officially begins when the Bright Angel Trail reaches the Colorado River at the River Rest house, although some consider that the Bright Angel Trail officially ends after crossing the Colorado River at the Silver Bridge.

I may never travel to see the Grand Canyon, but am halfway there through this clear, fine landscape. Thank you, Jon. F/L
