Hi Bernie,
The China trips sounds like a great opportunity and adventure for your son.
Best of luck to him.
Thanks for sharing your pics from the night hike. I particularly like the
shot of Ryan sitting; under the full Moon lighting, it has an ethereal quality
to it. I also like the shots showing Sumner, Zoroaster and the northern half
of the canyon. How hot was it on your night hike? Today, the forecast high is
for 97 at the South Rim and 120 at Phantom Ranch. Yikes!

My son Ryan is about to leave for a six-month China stay so we took the
opportunity for a full moon hike down the South Kaibab trail in the
Grand Canyon as a final father-son activity before he leaves. The
Venus-Saturn conjunction was on display so I shot a few landscapes using
my Canon 20D digital SLR. Also took a few shots with familiar
constellations displayed above the moonlit canyon walls.
