Hiking Grand Canyon
Hiking Grand Canyon
Grand Canyon Duffel Service, early drop-off?
We are planning to hike the Grand Canyon from rim-to-rim over three days. I was considering arranging the duffel service to take our pack up/out of the canyon on day three to make it easier. We plan to start hiking the Bright Angel Trail at 4am on Day Three & I am not able to find any reliable answers on the drop-off for the duffel service. Has anyone used this service & dropped off so early? Not sure if there are staff that early to take delivery of the backpacks.
Out-bound duffel procedures
Out-bound duffels are duffels being taken out of the canyon up to Grand Canyon Village. They must be presented at the Phantom Ranch Loading Dock no later than 7:00 a.m. - on the day they are to be taken up out of the canyon. The weighing, measuring and loading occurs only at Phantom Ranch. Recycled grain bags are provided for guests without their own duffels.
Duffels may be claimed between 3:00 p.m.and 4:00 p.m. at the Xanterra Livery Barn the day they are brought up from the canyon or between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. the following day.
Late duffel procedures
Late pickup of duffels coming up from Phantom Ranch is accommodated between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m.
Delivery of late duffels going down to Phantom Ranch must be arranged for prior to midnight the day/evening prior to delivery at Phantom.
A $10 additional charge (late fee) will be collected for late duffels per call (not per duffel).
Guests should call the Xanterra switchboard at 928-638-2631 so the operator can arrange for an employee to handle the late duffel request.
