In the belly of the Grand Canyon

If you decide to walk to the bottom of the Grand Canyon when the North Rim is still closed, everyone will mostly be on the Bright Angel or South Kaibab trails. They won't head north much out of Phantom (the campground/cabin area by the river). But, if you still head north another 7 miles you walk up through the 'Box', where the canyon is narrow and beautiful. If you keep going you will get to Ribbon Falls AND if you are really lucky you have passed the few other people headed that way to climb up behind the waterfall all alone.... And you get to have this all to yourself.

Cause life is beautiful, even when it's unexpected.
