Day 24 - Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon is, as its name suggests, very large. Whether you hike along the rim or descend into the canyon, it takes a long time on foot. But there are many alternatives: helicopters, cars, buses, bicycles... but that seemed too ordinary for us today, so we decided to go for this 1 horsepower vehicle.

We rode on our mules 'Judd' and 'Corky' along the South Rim of the canyon and enjoyed the magnificent view. Horses are not suitable for rides along and into the canyon as they are easily frightened and do not feel comfortable on the narrow paths along the cliffs. The mules, on the other hand, trot without worries over rocks and stones and remain calm.
