End of the Trail

Finally, the North Rim! This is the North Kaibab trailhead, after 24 miles of hiking (which took nine hours and 42 minutes from the South Rim). And actually, this is not the end of the trail - it’s another 1.7 miles to the shuttle pickup spot, and then a 4.5 hour drive back around to the South Rim lodgings. A long day.
