Grand Canyon Hiking and Backpacking Trip:

Doug and Brian hiked down the Jumpup-Nail trail from Sowat's Point, on the north rim of the Grand Canyon, to Kwagunt Hollow. We then went down Jumpup Canyon, through the Narrows to the confluence with Kanab Canyon. The original plan had been to follow Kanab Canyon and Kanab Creek all the way to the Colorado River, but after going past Showerbath Springs and then down to Scotty's Castle and Scotty's Hollow, we decided to change course. So we turned around and hiked back up Kanab Canyon, back through the Narrows and up Jumpup Canyon, then up Sowats Creek and Sowats Hollow. Finally, we climbed up onto the Esplanade and crossed back to upper Kwagunt Hollow and out the Jumpup-Nail trail. The trip encompassed 7 days and 6 nights. We don't have a trip report yet, but you can view photos of the trip at Doug's photo site at York Photos. You will have to get an account - your email address and a personal password, but there is no obligation to buy anything and York won't hassle or spam you. |
