13 hikers, 1136 (or more) steps - South Rim, North Rim, inspiration point, suspension bridge, High Bluff Trail and those steps......but a beautiful day at Tullulah.  Told by park ranger that Peregrine Falcon had eggs that were to hatch any day and search we did but never did find that falcon.  Weather was perfect for hiking, steps were brutal for some (ME) but we all made it out.

13 hikers NO STEPS - Panther Creek - stopped about midway for lunch by the creek.  tons of roots, a few downs trees to hop over, mud, boulders, a few really treacherous spots and a waterfall at the very end and then return trip (MORE - tons of roots, a few downs trees to hop over, mud, boulders, a few really treacherous spots) and I was so happy to see bright yellow vehilce waiting for me to just chill for the  1 1/2 hour ride back to my car.  (Thanks Jim)

Very stiff, slept well and on the way out to do it all again at Vineyard Mountain with Joyce and Jeff
