The squirrels are pretty gutsy, can hear a food wrapper from 2.3427 miles away, and are all freaking over the place

Starting down Bright Angel trail

Someone crinkled a powerbar wrapper

For some bizarre reason, this is 1/3 the way down the path. Guess the person decided not to hike any further

Did we mention squirrels?

Jill noticed something rustling in the bush a few feet away from us when we were setting up the tent

This is the start of an interesting sequence.

This baby squirrel is a little too inquisitive for its own good

or just freaking stupid

hrmmm, Darwin award candidate. Some people from a diff group did scare the little guy away so he didnt get eaten

All things considered, this thing was 3+ foot long and quite gorgeous. Jill wasnt so happy about our campsite anymore tho

The other animal you cannot walk 8 feet without running into

Halfway down bright angel, at indian gardens campground, on a night hike to plateau point

start of right to left sequence

end of sequence

Colorado river from Plateau point

Looking back to the campsite (Indian Gardens)

Yeah, did we mention they were also fearless?

He tried to crawl into Jill's pack next

at the bottom of the canyon, walking along a stream toward the colorado river

The river.

The suspension bridge across the river, toward the campgrounds

Soaking the feet in 32.0000004 degree water

This thing was more teritorial than your average pit bull, chased another set of hikers off the trail

heading back up
