We did the 3 mile Bright Angel day hike OCT 4th with a 7am start time. Weather was great...chilly start so you'll need a light jacket but warmed up as we went. Didnt need the 3 liters of water with the weather as mild as it was...1-2 would have been plenty. Not crowded at all going down at this time. Got much more crowded going back up. The views were amazing and our guide Catherine was terrific! She seemed to know everything about the canyon and more. She was also very flexible and patient with our group to ensure we enjoyed the experience exactly as we wanted to. Everything about the day went smoothly (booking, meet up, equipment, etc) right up to the delicious lunch she prepared for us at the end. Would definitely do it again!
