Women’s Backpacking in the Grand Canyon, Arizona with the Sierra Club

Coming October 31, 2015. Backpacking through one of the seven natural wonders of the world! Join the Sierra Club for their 7-day Women’s Backpacking in the Grand Canyon tour. Starting at the south rim of the canyon, explore about 35 miles of trails and a few miles off-trail while taking in expansive views of the Colorado River and the enormous, colorful walls of sandstone and limestone. The trip is broken down into 2 days for the descent and 3 days for the ascent with an average of 5-6 miles covered per day. This is a physically challenging trip with a level 4 (out of 5) rating, so recent backpacking experience is required. A strenuous, yet rewarding week-long adventure through the Grand Canyon!
