    Tips

    September 26, 2024

    Sweeping views of the lower canyon open up before you as you reach the point. You are about halfway down to Bright Angel, and the second major vertical section of the trail switchbacks away beneath you. Skeleton Point is so named for the unexpected discovery of the skeletons of old miners.
