August 23rd, 1913 Saturday

Breakfast late.  Some of the party went sight seeing, rest of us stayed at camp and watched a pack train park up and start on journey in park.  One man took our picture.  Lulu and I (Della) took bath before dinner.  After dinner Sandy, Lulu, Jim, Mabel, Jack and I walked down in Canyon.  Beautiful sight started about 3 PM.  Returned to camp at 8:30, went to Inspiration Point, saw several eagles nest and some young ones.  Had several pictures taken.  George and Ethel came to meet us.  Went around to Grand Canyon Hotel, had some lemonade and got some post cards.  Jack paid a bet to me--a box of candy.  It was fine.  Went up to see the bears--18 in all, some silver tips, grizzlies and cinnamons.  One silver tip had three cubs.  Returned to camp and went to bed.  Watched moving pictures of Maud Brown in neighbor camp going to bed in her tent with lights on.  All tired from climbing in and out of the canyons.



Now how did they walk to the bottom of the canyon?
