Gallydoll

BA
Gallydoll turns 30 in April and I hit 50 in April. We decided to cross this off the bucket list.
Took the orange bus from the visitor center over a little after 5am and started down the trail around 5:30. Full moon was bright enough we didn't even use our headlamps. Pretty uneventful hike down to the river. We stopped for plenty of photo ops being our first time. We dipped our toes into the icy Colorado and started our long trek up Bright Angel. Nice hike up to Indian Gardens along the creek. The hike up from Indian Garden to the top of the South Rim was brutal. I was totally in survival mode. Once we got to the top we headed over to Maswik Lodge for some pizza and beer.
