How to go to the Grand Canyon
How I did it: I've lived in AZ for 8 years and have never been to the grand canyon. Finally, my husband decided to take me. We didn't do the tourist stuff, we hiked to the canyon from some old roads. When walking, the grand canyon just suddenly appears out of nowhere. If I had been walking at night I would have walked off the cliff :-0 We walked along the rim for a while then we decided to relax by the edge, letting our feet hang off the cliff. It was very peaceful. On the way up we saw a bear or an elk, couldn't decipher because it had ran between the bushes. It was really nice to FINALLY see what everyone had been talking about!
Lessons & tips: If you take off roads to the canyon make sure you have a spare tire. We had a flat on the way up. Bring binoculars, a camera and GPS.
Resources: Get someone that knows the land-like a hunter or a local to take you up there (if you want to avoid tourists).
