Toroweap cont...

The trip to Toroweap (also Tuweep) last week was grueling - the factor influencing that adjective choice most is the weather, about 100 degrees.  But looking back to consider, I remember the beauty and this memory cancels the heat and the drive.  Getting there by taking the most difficult route (made possible by considerable vehicle readiness completed by my travel partner), sleeping in a small tent at the campground that hosts only nine sites that overlook the canyon area,  made the experience remarkable and filled me with a feeling of accomplishment.  Another element that was pleasing about the remotness of the Toroweap Grand Canyon North Rim was the absence of crowds ...  I encountered eight people and this number includes the ranger and his guests.
