Double rim crossing of Grand Canyon lived up to the hype. One of the runners in our group, Cory, did a great write up about our trip
here. See you at Zane Grey Cory!

Sun coming up on Dan Olmstead and Lewis Taylor descending South Kaibab Trail. |

Added on a couple miles to Plateau Point, worth it. |

Climbing back up the South Rim via Bright Angel Trail. |

Training for ZG has gone well, using the Grand Canyon as my last long run. Then running on local trails like Steep'n'cheap and the Briar Trail. Pictures here of me, Dom, Peter and Erik doing BDP (Baldy, Dawson, Pine) good technical dirt in preparation for some rocky Arizona trails.

Looking at Baden-Powell from Dawson Peak |
Erik posted some good pics from some of the above mentioned runs
here.
There's something about the way everything looks when you are up on the top of mountains where the air thins. Keeps me coming back.

Thanks for the plug. Best of luck in Zane Grey (remember my great grandpa knew him ;-)
