We hiked 7.1 miles along South Kaibab Trail down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon (4,800 ft elevation change).
We dipped our toes in the Colorado River (icy cold!) briefly before heading to Phantom Ranch, where we ate some lunch and had some lemonade.
My favorite part of the hike was along the Bright Angel Trail leaving the Colorado River 
Then, 9.6 miles hiking up from the Colorado River to the Bright Angel Trailhead (4,400 ft elevation change).
