Arizona has been great, but it’s time to hit the road and head to New Mexico! We imagine this drive to be pretty desolate and flat, so hopefully we can hit that cruise control and cover some serious miles!
On the Road: Day 17 – In Arizona
There’s No Buddy Like a Brother
Today we are visiting Kali’s brother in Phoenix, Arizona!
Shortly before going on this trip, we were deployed for 6 months. While we were deployed, Kameron, Kali’s youngest brother was deployed as well!
We have not been able to see Kameron in over a year, so we are pretty excited for this opportunity to visit him and see how he has established himself in Arizona.
Grand Canyon: Part 2 – Hiking Up
It’s an early start to our day as we prepare for the climb out of the Grand Canyon! Reviews we’ve read online have warned hikers not to attempt this hike if they are not able to run 10 miles a day….
We definitely aren’t running 10 miles a day, and have only recently begun taking on more difficult hikes!!
This could be interesting!!! 😧
Grand Canyon: Part 1 – Hiking Down
We have quite an adventure planned today! Our goal is to hike to the bottom of the GRAND CANYON!!!
Reading several blogs and informational sites, hiking down and up looks to be pretty strenuous.
Many people have died hiking in the Grand Canyon! 😱
If anyone’s interested in that, take a look at this gruesome map!
Antelope Slot Canyon Tour
Located on the upper Antelope Canyon, we are about to embark on an adventure through one of the most visited slot canyons in the Southwest.
Clouds have filled the sky, but we are hoping they hold their tears for us to enjoy this tour through the Navajo territory.
Cliffs, Bends, and Horses
You can’t go to the Grand Canyon before stopping to see the GLORIOUS view of Horseshoe Bend!
Pulling into a crowded parking lot, near the town of Page, we are excited to take a short stroll to the views at Horseshoe Bend. This overlook of the Colorado River offers a breathtaking view like no other!
Four Places At Once!
Most people would love the ability to be two places at once. Today we’re going to be in four!
Looking online, there’s doesn’t seem to be much to the Four Corners monument, but we’re still excited for the opportunity to visit such a unique location.
