Preparing for Your Grand Canyon Rim to Rim Hike

Many of you may be contemplating your first, or tenth Rim to Rim hike. Let the experts - that would be us because we've hiked Grand Canyon so many times, with so many people that we lost count - somewhere around 100 with around 400+ people - but who's counting?

We will provide you some tips about trying to get prepared, what to bring for food and drink, proper footwear and clothing, what to expect (climate, trail, other people, etc.) and how to hopefully make it through in one piece. This seminar is geared towards those hiking in a day, but most of this information applies to anyone hiking over multiple days. And since many of you need time to train, February/March is when many of you will want to start! So, best to know now what you are getting yourselves into:)

If you want to have a one up on the discussion and be able to follow along, consider purchasing the Rim to Rim in a Day E-Guide. This guide will cover in depth much more than will be covered in this seminar because there is way too much information to cover in 90 minutes. https://www.justroughinit.com/product/rim-to-rim-grand-canyon-day-hiking-preparation-guide/

This is a free event!

There will be no handouts - saving paper kind of thing, so bring something to write on and with if you want to take notes.
