In May, thousands of hikers and ultrarunners make their pilgrimage to the Grand Canyon to hike or run across this amazing wonder of the world.
I have been producing short videos for the new Grand Canyon History YouTube channel. I thought it would be interesting to also publish these as a podcast episode for you to listen to. This is part two. The video versions of these shorts, of course, have many historic pictures to see. Please subscribe to that channel.
Some of these shorts come from my best-selling book, Grand Canyon Rim to Rim History. You can get my book on Amazon.
