Big Horn Sheep

On the way back up the Bright Angel trail, I could see traffic building up ahead, becoming stop and go.  Here's why:

If you remember to look up, there are always scenic outcrops to see too:

There were a few flowers in the canyon, I found these photogenic:

A couple more rocky outcrops:

And, one last shot from this trail.  I still have more photos to come from my third day at the canyon, so don't slip into that coma just yet...
