Resources

I remember when I was younger, I lived in California for a while.

While I was on the West coast, I had the opportunity to visit a lot of the surrounding states and explore what they had to offer.

However, none of them compared to Arizona with its Grand Canyon!

Back in the day, we went on mules down the trails to see the canyon, and that was actually quite frightening at times with the rocky inclines & declines.

Grand Canyon tours have evolved from the mule tours, from what I hear they are no longer even doing them that way.

I was much younger then and don't think I completely appreciated the experience as much as I should have, and have always wanted to go back and experience it as a more mature person.

As it is much more difficult for me to walk these days with the arthritis that comes from age, I wouldn't be able to walk much and wouldn't be able to experience it in such a way. However, what I have found are Grand Canyon helicopter tours, which look amazing and would enable me to see the things I want to with an extra bit of thrill to boot!

That's certainly something even a grandma like me could really enjoy!

Something I'd really need to look into are Phoenix tours as well to be sure I make the most of any kind of trip I might make...
