Hiking Podcasts Updated by Grand Canyon National Park

The Backcountry Information Center has updated the Hiking Podcast with two spring 2008 updates: one for the Corridor Trails and one for the non-corridor trails.

How do you plan for a Grand Canyon hike during spring break? How do you get on the waiting list for any permits that may become available during this busy time? How can you safely walk on the slippery ice at the top of the trail?

Includes a Tanner Trail repair update... Difficulties when driving out to the S. Bass Trailhead... Will I be able to hike down the Hermit trail after they close the road April 1st?

MP3 files and transcripts of the updates are posted on the Backcountry Audiocast page:
