  • We spent three days overlanding along the north rim of the Grand Canyon, and it resulted in some of the most spectacular scenery (and best campsites) we have EVER seen.

    That rock feature you pointed out looked like hexagonal columnated basalt. So yep the lava. Neat!

    Amazing spot, I can barely remember being there. I need to go back and raft on that river! That cool looking columns on the hike down the Colorado river looks the same as the Devils Postpile in California. If it's the same thing, then it's called Columnar basalt or Basalt columns.

    Made the trek to Toroweap campsite years ago when my son was in his early teens. Camping nearby was the owner of the Maglite company. He gave my son an American flag Maglite. Newer online reservation system makes it difficult to get into that site these days. Stayed two nights. Ethereal landscape.

      Duuuuuuude .... you're telling me about Multnomah Falls. Hilariously, that's where I proposed to Christine, and I hiked up the trail with a heavy jacket on because I didn't want to risk taking it off and losing the ring. Let's just say I was sweating .... for more reasons than one lol

    Could you get an Airstream there? It’s been on plenty of trails but it’s rough turning around when you need to.

      @WheretoNextOverland  23 дні тому

      Possibly, but I don't think I'd try it personally. The last 8ish miles get a bit steep and rocky. Nothing too bad, but the rocks are super sharp out there.

      If you mean Whitmore, your Airstream would be destroyed before you got there. Ground clearance would be your biggest issue, along with no room to turn around. I advise against it. Toroweap is not as rough, but it is in the NP, and trailers are prohibited there, I think.
