Grand Canyon backpacking trip. May, 1995

3 night backpacking trip into the canyon. We started on the South Kaibab trail and stayed at the Bright Angel campground for two nights. Then we hiked the Bright Angel trail up to Indian Gardens, where we spent a night. The next day, we finished the trail up to Grand Canyon village.
