Grand Canyon, South Bass to Boucher Trail backpacking adventure

Once considered the scenic heart of Grand Canyon, the South Bass Trail is now remote and little visited. We hike the second through fifth days on the Tonto Trail camping in Serpentine, Ruby, Turquoise, Sapphire, Agate, Slate, and Topaz Canyons, known as the Jewels. We hike out to the South Rim on the Boucher Trail
