South Kaibab Trail Grand Canyon Ooh Aah Point 0166

After the initial switchbacks, the South Kaibab Trail traverses below Yaki Point to the aptly named Ooh Ahh Point (the first panoramic view of the canyon). Hikers seeking panoramic views unparalleled on any other trail at Grand Canyon will want to consider a hike down the South Kaibab Trail. It is the only trail at Grand Canyon National Park that so dramatically holds true to a ridgeline descent. But this exhilarating sense of exposure to the vastness of the canyon comes at a cost: there is little shade and no water for the length of this trail. img alt="several people standing and sitting on a sloping sandstone ledge are overlooking an expansive canyon landscape
