Two photos of the same subject. Taken on the South Kaibab Trail just below the Devil's Staircase, going to the Tonto Platform. Potholes in the Staircase trail were being filled by the muleteam, and this photo shows the muleskinner pulling his team in to the borrow pit to reload. Anyone who's hiked Grand Canyon will appreciate the hard work to rehab the trails, and the muleteams that travel them daily. For me these images are timeless and encapsulate the feeling and purpose of the National Parks
