You've got to solve the Grand Canyon thing. I hiked down the Bright Angel Trail one day, spent the night on the other side of the river and came back out the next day. Many, many moons ago. That's 14 miles straight up it seems. Some of the Park Rangers do it two, three times a day.
Did you know that the mules piss right in the crook of the switchbacks? Never in the open stretches. Great big puddles of piss, and it stinks to high heaven in mid August..
