One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
6 day hike inside the grand canyon. Life changing.
At one point we saw a wolf hunt down a deer. National geographic in front of our eyes. We hiked on 1000 foot shear cliff faces by the light of the moon. We struggled, we bled, we laughed until we cried, we cried until we laughed, we LIVED!
