I took the lower Grand Canyon trip Oct. 4-Oct. 12, 2014. On a scale of 1-10, I would give this trip a 15! The scenery was fabulous, the weather perfect, the guides were passionate (and I do not use that word lightly) about the canyon, and best of all, the food was incredible. It was simple, delicious, abundant, and we rafters pounded it down. The hike down the Bright Angel trail was every bit as arduous as they warned about, but I made it.

The guides took very good care of us. They read poems or short stories about the Canyon every day, described the geology of the magnificent rocks in great detail, told goofy jokes, and seemed to be having a wonderful time with each other and with us. They worked their butts off from dawn to dusk, rowing all day, then cooking and cleaning up after us. A+, AZRA!
