Crossing the Grand Canyon on Foot | Ultrarunning History
The first known double crossing hike occured in 1891. Dan Hogan (1871-1935) and Henry Ward went down the rough miner’s trail, crossed the river and made their way up Bright Angel Canyon to the North Rim. They then returned by the same route.
Cameron charged a toll of one dollar to use the trail, plus fees for drinking water and to use outhouses at Indian Garden. By 1903 traveling down to the river and back in one day either by foot or by horse was possible. By 1905 it was estimated that Cameron was making $7,500 per year in toll fees.
