Grand Canyon Rim to Rim Part 3 

I was "like" 666 for Part 3, and I watched (and liked) all three parts. I'll never be able to make this journey, but I enjoyed--through RU-vid--living vicariously through your magic videos. Thank you!

Me and some family members did the rim to rim in May of 2003. The 3 part videos brought back some fond memories. Your videos were fantastic. Thanks for sharing your trip.

You guys had the best weather. I day hiked to the river and back up, not a cloud in site for the whole trip. Great video

Mike didnt like wearing his hat. Lol Great job. I think I meed to this mext year to celebrate my 65th. Thanks for bringing us along.

GC is trully a extraordinary place...a real jewell in the ,necklace of the worldwide nature beauties...i cincerally enjoy watching this marblelous video and i can literally feel every breath you taking while climing up to the top of the clifs and walking on narrow lanes literally by he edge of the doom's...i can't even imagine the measure of enjoymant and exciment that you feel during this liftime adventure for which i am certain you will never forget..thank you one more time...many greatings from Croatia..P.S ...sorry for my eventually bad english..😒

What a great trip thanks for sharing. Been to canyon many times but not fit enough to hike.

Awesome. Thank you for filming. I didn't take much video when i went earlier this year. Great job.

Excellent video Matt! Thank you!

Nice video Matt and great accomplishment! My wife and I were there about month before you and spent a couple days down there. No way could we traverse that many miles in one day particularly the Grand Canyon.

Did that trail but went out to the river overlook which made the whole trip worth the hike. Looks like you guys missed it. It is beautiful. We came across mountain goats as well. That was cool.

we have to bear in mind that mother nature could create only beauty ,where we will feel rejuvenated Merry Christmas and a healthy 2023 !!!

Enjoyed the entire Canyon series very much, and the audio/video quality was excellent, as well as your editing. Did you use a GoPro? Chest mount? Cap mount? Gimbal? Many thanks!

My son and I with other friends were there hiking SK to NK just a week prior to your trip. Temps were mid 70’s. I just hiked SK to NK again last Wednesday, November 2. Another gorgeous day in the canyon with low 70’s in the box. Something about it keeps drawing us back! I’m 76 and hope to continue making the hike for years to come. It’s magical.

Wonderful...superb vedio graphy..thanks

Great video and great advise

Hi Matt, so you can hike to the river and camp overnight and then make the hike back out? My wife and I love the Grand Canyon, we floated down the Colorado for 5 days covered 188 miles. We have also helicoptered over the canyon, awesome. We want to hike rim to rim but can’t do it in one day.

Awesome video, very informative too. Did you film the entire time or just pick your spots? I am doing this route in Sept 2023 so trying to learn as much as I can.

If you're down in the canyon in October, there's a pretty good chance that it's Fall.

Canyon Magic.

R3 people are fitness freaks meant to meet you feel inferior? Seems like you've met some interesting folks, but I know alot who are encouraging, inspiring, etc.

This was an incredible hike. Thanks for taking me along. What beautiful scenery! You had to be in incredible shape to accomplish rim to rim. Congratulations

If you had stop and look up at the rock wall just above the tunnel before you finish your hike out on the Bright Angel Trail you will see a pictograph on the wall. Most people never notice it's there.

STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL INDEED !!! THANK YOU !!!! FROM U.K. (2022.).

You said what I said when I reached the top too, indifferent words though: "We can say we did it, but never again." We had a rule to never walk up hill or down hill ever again. And we haven't, except for the few years in the Rocky Mountains..............man that was a mother. EVERY THING is either up or down hill. We loved it though. Thank you for an incredible trip down Memory Lane. My judgment is that it is, by far, the very best hike up the canyon of the many videos I have seen, constantly searching for one like this. thank you.

Great job documenting your hike! I've done this south to north for the past 12 years. I can cruise downhill and flat but struggle uphill every time. Agree on the R2R2R runners/hikers! Makes me feel inferior.

thank you for sharing your hike i went to the north Rim and would have lovved to make the hike in my younger days. Thanks to you I was able to experience it variously,

WOW! Stunning! Thank you so much!

Thank you for filming this beautiful hike for us who would never be able to do it. 😅

Wonderfully done. How long did it take you guys to complete this Rim to Rim hile? What time did you finish at south Rim?

In January 2014 we did SK down to Phantom Ranch (overnight) then to Ribbon Falls and back to Phantom Ranch (overnight) then out on the BA. It was fantastic. We needed crampons going down the SK until the 5000 ft level, but no snow the remainder of the trip. A great, uncrowded, time of the year to do it. Pretty easy until you are coming out and reach the 3 mile resthouse. We were all in our mid-60's at the time. For anyone wondering about Phantom Ranch, you need reservations. I could have done with much less volume on the music as I missed a lot of your comments.

lol, “Rim-to-rim-to-rim hikers are obnoxious fitness freaks whose purpose for existing is to make the rest of us feel inferior”, that is the runners. While I am definitely obnoxious, I’m a fat old guy who was just curious if he could do it in one day. I assure you it is a way more mental (staying motivated) and technical challenge (keeping properly fueled and hydrated) than physical. When I saw my first r3 video on YT I was in awe and never intended to do it. I did it about a year after that first viewing just by hiking consistently and when someone asked if I wanted to do r2r on short notice I said yes but kept the option for returning in the back of my mind. When I got to the north rim I knew I had enough in me to make it back so I left my friend at his car and started back. I was watching this video because I went through the area in the dark and was seeing what I missed. I plan on doing rim to river to rim soon to see it in the daylight. Thanks for posting the video.

Watched all three episodes. Thanks for sharing. This hike will be on my bucket list to hike before I get to old.

This is one of the best videos on here for R2R. Seriously, beautiful scenery, nice music, and no whining even when the going obviously got tough. Thanks for sharing!

How many people watched this “muted “ because of the ANNOYING PIANO MUSIC! 🤬

Wow, this was beautiful…thanks for posting!

Esse trajeto que passa pelo jardim indiano parece ser bem menos perigoso. Excelente imagens!

I hiked North rim to South rim in 1973 with two of my buddies. We we employed at the lodge on the North rim and had two days off and decided the hike couldn't be missed. Took two days, slept on the lawn at Phantom Ranch and made it to the South rim. Hired a plane to fly us back to the North rim. Always wanted to do it again and now, at 76 years old, I felt I did it! Thank you!

great job I did that trip at 64 a trip of a life time

I may have missed and im sorry if i did… but what month did you hike…. Just wondering on amount of daylight in the later fall months… i had a friend do it this May…. And i’d think daylight was never a problem for R2R…

Nice video series, congrats on the effort. Had all in your group done this hike b4?

Great job!

You did it! Great! I whatch you from the armchair! 🤣

Looks like you had correct seasonality working for you. Everyone was wearing a jacket at the TH.

My best friend, Great Good... !!! I wish you every day of your development.

I remember all those stairs up the Bright Angel. Nothing like doing it in the middle of summer with temps of 130 at Phantom Ranch.

Wwaaww!!!!

也沒有👹歷史文化古蹟單爬山看著👹石頭草？
