That’s really great to hear!! The Grand Canyon is one of those places you can’t really go wrong in. But it’s also a place where you can get stuck in one place. Once you walk to the edge there’s a part of you that just wants to stop and stare out and stay. We had to keep reminding each other to keep moving so we could see more spots. 😂

Really looking forward to this, at this point it will be part of our Route 66 drive portion, and it will serve as a scouting trip for future trips so we can stay in some areas longer to explore! We've thrown in an extra twist and doing it in our electric car! Thanks again for the video and insights. Travel safe. Mike & Ally

Wow, I lived/worked at the Grand Canyon in 1974-75, and you've taught me a new pronunciation of Yavapai.....All I have ever heard it pronounced was like Yava, like Java, and Pai, as in Pie. Not sure where you got your pronunciation, but none of the states newscasters or state officials say it your way! Live from Tucson! (pronounced Too-san.)

Though I've been to the Canyon over thirty times, I very much enjoyed your video. I'd just like to add a little help with pronounciation: Yavapai is pronounced "YAH vah pie" and Hopi is" HO pee." Any FYI, if you continue up the trail past the village, you cross a few billion more years of geologic information and you can also get to one of the most overlooked views--the Trailview where you walk down a series of stairs and get to see an overhead view of a large section of Bright Angel Trail.
