9.99 miles of hiking • 1500' elevation gain •
A day with waterfalls, fog, fall color, a little rain, and eventually, some sun. After taking the rim trail from Upper North Falls, I decided to go back into the canyon instead of continuing on the rim trail next to the road. I'm glad I made that decision, because as I approached South Falls, misty fog was forming around the falls just as the sun was nearing the canyon rim. A magical scene.
