Glamorous camping in early June 2022.  A quick stop at Bearzona with actual bears to see along with other animals.  Then a quick drip up toward the South Rim to the campsite, Canvas Under the Stars.  First up was a bike ride tour around 4 scenic stops.  Then a sunset jeep tour.  And finally a hike down the canyon with our guild John.  Passing by narrow trails previously used by miners and donkeys to move ore and equipment.  This hike was no walk in the park with a high consequences if you weren't paying attention.
