My story

The Grand Canyon Hike - South Rim to North Rim

(and Back!)

I have been planning this hike since last summer and combining it with the opportunity of helping out a charity which provides support to those with learning difficulties is a great opportunity and privilege.
The hike will be over approx 4 days and is the equivalent of climbing Ben Nevis twice in a few days with a 15-mile hike in between. I will be camping out in the canyon and look forward (?!?!) to meeting the creatures I have read about - scorpions, rattlesnakes, biting red ants and the tarantula hawk wasp, to name but a few. Apparently no one makes a sealed, armour plated tent so hopefully my snoring will keep the wildlife at bay.
So come on, if I’m crazy enough to do it – why not be sensible enough to sponsor me.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: ENABLE Scotland gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.So please sponsor me now!
