re: #160 jaunte

The Bright Angel trail is pretty safe, it just takes a long time to get to the bottom.
That pic I posted is the Grandview (very steep and unmaintained) trail.

It can be nice and safe but it still involves a ton of DOWN so really it would depend on how much there is in the way of walls along switchbacks and whatnot. And even then.

Seriously, I can hyperventilate if I am not careful. And have.

re: #169 BeachDem

When I was in Ireland (just for you, Klys) we went to the Skellig Islands. I got about 4 steps up and gave up on the whole idea. Sat at the base and watched the puffins.[Embedded image]

I skipped Uncle Tom’s trail the last trip because it involves lots of stairs made out of that see-through metal grate. HAHAHAHAHA, no.

When we did our most recent road trip, we stopped by one of the fire lookout towers and went up and that was bad enough.

Nice view though.
