From the trailhead to the Colorado River the Bright Angel Trail drops 4460’ over 7.7 miles. The trail was rutty, hot, and dusty. Frequent water breaks are required, so we filled our water bottles every chance we got. We also took along some electrolyte powder to add to our water along the way. One of the most notable rest stops is Indian Garden, located 4.6 miles from the trailhead. It is a small Oasis 3000 feet below the rim and an excellent place to take a long break.
The views are spectacular, so take your time and enjoy them.
