Grand Canyon in 23 Photos

Our Grand Canyon backpacking trip was fantastic! Impatience causes me to post the photos now and the text later. Also, I have yet to post photos and text about our experiences at Chaco Canyon. At the moment, we're in Boston visiting Julie's daughter. Hopefully, over the next few days, I'll be able to catch up on favorite blogs.
