Grand Canyon National Park— New snow on Bright Angel Trail 0089

“Returning home is the most difficult part of long-distance hiking; You have grown outside the puzzle and your piece no longer fits.” ― Cindy Ross
Looking back at Bright Angel Trail, on the morning of Wednesday, January 20, 2021.
About 3 inches of new snow here in Grand Canyon Village. As you can see, the upper portions of Grand Canyon trails are snow-packed and icy.
Conditions will only become worse over the next few days as snow melts during the day - then refreezes into ice at night.
Foot traction devices and trekking poles are recommended for all persons hiking into the canyon.Beginning Friday afternoon, the arrival of two back-to-back storms have the potential to bring widespread rain and snow to the area throughout the weekend and into Tuesday.
