A remote climb from South Rim to Colorado River
National Geographic Documentary, The South Bass Trail is one of Grand Canyon's more remote edge to stream climbs, requiring a lengthy drive on earth streets, part of which cross Hualapai Indian Reservation area, to achieve the trailhead.
The South Bass Trail drives explorers 7.8 waterless miles and more than 4,400 vertical feet from the South Rim to the Colorado River, where you can camp on the shoreline close to the Ross Wheeler vessel, deserted where it lies in 1915.
National Geographic Documentary, I trekked this trail more than three days time (one down and two move down, with a night on the shoreline and a night on the Esplanade) with my Ranger companion, who took me to see some archeological locales along the way.
