You can click on any picture and see a bigger portion of it. All of the viewpoints that were put up by the Nat'l Park had rails so you couldn't fall off. But, there were also areas where we saw the younger crowd walk out on. All it takes is one false step and over you go....scary....

If you click on the second picture from the bottom of the last post, you can see a patch of the Colorado River. This next group of pictures has one picture of the canyon where the Phantom Ranch is located, notice all the greenery, and the picture after that shows the bridge where the mule train crosses the river to the Ranch. I always thought I'd like to ride the mule train down to the River, until I found out that it's 9 1/2 miles of rough trail down and the same amount back up the next morning. If you are not used to riding a horse or mule, well, you are going to have one sore body when all is said and done...so guess I'll have to think of an easier way down there....
