This is the true story of two brothers, 8-year-old Luke and 6-year-old Jackson, on their first overnight hike into the Grand Canyon. Along with their parents, they experienced the Bright Angel Trail, Indian Gardens, Phantom Ranch, the Colorado River, and the South Kaibab Trail.

They encountered bighorn sheep, pictographs, pack mules, scorpions, and hikers from all over the world. Hiking the canyon presented a few unique circumstances and lessons.

Preschool and younger elementary school children would enjoy this book.
