    They should call it, &quot;Dumb Ass Trail&quot;.

    Like so many things the Canyon doesn’t care what you think.

    . . . the deadliest distance in the Grand Canyon is the distance between the ears of the idiots who believe that the warnings do not apply to them . . .

    I live in the SW. Even going out in my yard in summer can be overwhelming.

    Must be hell for these Rangers to get used to… “if only they’d listened.”

    Nature humbles arrogant humans. She does not play stupid games.

    I did that hike in DECEMBER 1990 WHEN I WAS 26. EVEN THEN I decided I should NOT do this in summer.<br>(It was freezing at the rim (maybe 29-30F) and it felt like a nice cool spring day when we got to the bottom.)

    March 2012 a friend and I carefully calculated that we should only go as far as Cedar Ridge on the South Kaibab Trail. We chatted with a ranger on our walk back up and I remember him saying to me, “You’re gonna be okay. You’ll make it back up. You’re still smiling”. And we did. But I realized in that moment that those rangers are carefully assessing every hiker they pass and I respected their judgments.

    I&apos;ve done the Grand Canyon rim to rim twice (once in each direction). Both times were in October, and it was still hot at the bottom. &nbsp;There&apos;s no way I&apos;d consider trying it in July.
