Wupatki - Indian ruins built on the desert.
We finally got to the Grand Canyon via the East Entrance at about 4:00 PM (Picture 6).
We stopped at the Dessert View viewing area and got our first look at the Grand Canyon. We also walked a few hundred feet down the Bright Angel Trail to get a feel for what we were in for.
The next day Monday April 19th Nick, the guide we hired, picked us up at our motel at 6:30 AM and took us into the park for the start of our adventure. Nick works for Sky Island Treks, the company that made all the arrangements for our trek and they did an excellent job. We ate breakfast, packed up our gear and headed for the Bright Angel Trail Head for the start of the trek, at about 9:00 AM.
