GRAND CANYON DAY 3

 

We woke up this morning and did a short morning hike up South Canyon to a small trickling waterfall. A few miles down river we stopped at Redwall Cavern, a vast chamber carved by the river. Major John Wesley Powell, who led an exploratory expedition thru the full canyon in 1869, estimated it could seat 50,000 people. After some medium rated rapids, we stopped to set up camp at Saddle around mile 48.
