Made camp at Phantom Ranch.

Tents and sleeping bags that we humped down in our backpacks along with all food and gear.

None of that cabin camping crap.

I weighed my backpack before the trip and it weighed 27 lbs which was heavier than I was shooting for but there are some things I can't compromise on......Like the Jack Daniels I sipped on with dinner each night.


I will admit that we did cheat a little and drink a cold Grand Canyon beer at Phantom Ranch...but we didn't eat there. Cooked all meals on the little burner you see in picture.
