Day 26- Oct 13, 2016: Going UP, Bright Angel to Indian Gardens




Morning light, it must be time to get moving and face the up hill trek. SB 9.3 miles up😊. Glad we are only going to Indian Gardens for the night (4.7 miles).
I sooooo love the rocks in the inner gorge: Vishnu Schist & Zoroaster Granite❤️
Crossing the Colorado. 
This area is just spectacular!!!  Rocks 1.7 to 2 Billion years❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Heading up. The shade is wonderful. 
Devils Cork Screw, not as bad as it sounds😍
Garden Creek makes this such a pleasant hike VS the S. Kaibab trail. 
Happy hiker on favorite trail.  Quite fashionable don't you think?
In camp early. Thanks Brian & Nancy for finding us such a great spot. 
Evening glow. 
Tomorrows adventure, the cliffs behind us a 3100 ft elevation gain in 4.5 miles.

Looks like you got to Indian Gardens in good time! Lots of shade. But of course, hiking without tent poles can really speed things up...
