The Grand Canyon!


I am going to hike the Grand Canyon! This trip is long overdue...it's been about three years since my last canyon hike. The trip will include myself, my brother Nick, My dad, Todd (a friend of my dad's/coworker) and his son, Ty. We will be going in off the North Rim taking the Deer Creek / Thunder River loop, which is an awesomely intense hike. To quote a post on www.arizonahiking.org "I have to be honest. This is a Death March. Tremendous elevation gains and losses, major exposures, some poorly marked trails, even some scrambling... everything a true adventurer needs. This hike is epic." 

Sounds pretty cool, no?

I'll be bringing my camera and full equipment, so be expecting some great photos soon, as well as a full run-down of what the hike entails. 

Should be great. Stay tuned.

Oh, and just for fun, check out the website I just put up/am in the works of finalizing: www.brianlwillis.com/socialmedia.html

  1. I've never hiked the Grand Canyon, quite pathetic for someone living here his whole life. I'm expectantly waiting those pictures. "Heavy Construction" I like that.
