Bryce Canyon in a snowy landscape. Even if you have been there, this is a place you should definitely visit during the snowy season. Naturally, nature is beautiful as it is without being affected by the corona.
On Saturday, February 27th, we held a one-day sightseeing tour of the Grand Canyon today.
This time, it ’s not a teddy bear, but a real person (laughs).
The customer lives in California and is stationed by a Japanese company, so he visited the Grand Canyon before returning to Japan by the end of the year.
More than two months have passed since vaccination in the United States began, the number of infected people has dropped sharply, and the restrictions on behavior in each state have been relaxed, so I feel that the demand for tourism in the country is increasing.
As for the Grand Canyon, many people can feel it from last year even in the corona vortex.
The mass vaccination of the corona vaccine at UNLV, University of Nevada, Las Vegas has been reduced to the 65-year-old civilian population. Until now, he was over 70 years old.
In addition, the one-time Johnson & Johnson vaccine has been approved, and the United States is finally accelerating toward the convergence of corona.

I went to the Grand Canyon on February 24th.
"I'm going on a graduation trip for you!"
On behalf of the four participants at the second event of
I took four teddy bears.
It was a big difference from two weeks ago and the weather was nice and cheerful.
A snapshot of the teddy bear that will please the participants with the guide in charge,
I've taken a lot of pictures, saying that it's not like that.
"Cute!" From an American tourist passing by
I asked a lot of people to say, "What kind of shooting?"
I was deeply moved when I explained the contents of the project.
It may be a long time before we can guide tourists to real people, but we believe that there are still things we can do to entertain and impress our customers.
I'm looking forward to showing the photos to the participants at tomorrow's ZOOM!

The latest announcement from Las Vegas, Nevada, killed 516 new corona infections and 16 deaths a day. The positive rate of the test was 8.6%, which means that it dropped to the level of the end of October last year.
I hope the new Corona will converge at this pace.
I think this is a long-cherished wish not only for the travel industry but also for those who are engaged in the restaurant business in particular.

The last Wednesday of February is PinkShirtDay#PinkShirtDay .
A boy who went to school in a pink polo shirt at a high school in Nova Scotia in 2007 was terribly teased. Two senior boys who heard it handed out 50 pink T-shirts to their friends and protested silently with them the next day, which was the beginning of the anti-bullying movement.
What happened in a small town in eastern Canada has taken the wave of social media and is now spreading around the world as Pink Shirt Day @pinkshirtday. You can wear anything that is bright and conspicuous pink. This is a good opportunity to insist on the opposition to bullying. If you go out, please join us.

YOUR GUIDE TO WINTER HIKING IN BANFF NATIONAL PARK
Crisp air filters through your lungs as you climb, one step at a time, through the peace and quiet of the forest. Snow crunching underfoot, you make your way higher, then take a moment to look up. The view has opened up, revealing a sea of peaks blanketed in snow, shining brilliantly under a blue-bird sky.
It’s on winter days like this that sometimes the best way to experience Banff National Park is on your two feet. So, when the snow starts to fly, keep your hiking boots handy! With a few extra pieces of gear, you can comfortably venture to some of the same destinations as you can in the summertime.

The Government of Canada has extended the quarantine order for entry from other countries until April 21st. Entry for sightseeing is not allowed. Canadian citizens and permanent residents, their spouses, parents, children, international students and work permit holders are welcome to enter the country. However, PCR inspection after arrival, isolation at a designated hotel for 3 days, and isolation at home for 14 days are required.
I will post my experience of camping at the bottom of the Grand Canyon from February 16th for 2 nights and 3 days. (Part 3)
February 18 (3rd day)
The campsite at the bottom of the valley was quite cold this morning as well.
Adam had begun preparing breakfast when it was still dim outside, so I decided to keep out of the cold and get out of my sleeping bag.
Today is finally the day of mountain climbing. The plan is to climb the Bright Angel Trail, which is different from the day before yesterday, in 8 hours with a break.
After breakfast, I cleaned up my tent and left the campsite at 8:40. In the first half, we will gradually increase the altitude while watching the Colorado River.
The weather was fine on that day, and even an hour after I started walking, the shade became less, and even a single shirt didn't bother me about the cold. It was scary to imagine that this was summer.
Three and a half hours after departure, we arrived at the Indian Garden at the middle point.
So I took a break for about an hour while having lunch slowly.
Departure for the summit at 1:00 pm.
The distance is not much different from the campsite to the Indian Garden, but the height difference is nearly double in the latter half, so it is physically tight.
First, aim for a 3-mile rest house. I climbed sedimentary rocks from 300 to 500 million years ago for a while, but if I look carefully at the surrounding rocks, I can see fossils of trilobites and ammonites.
Shortly before the 3-mile rest house, the trail began to be covered with snow.
Take a break and aim for the next 1.5 mile rest house.
From here to the summit, the switchback that is not exposed to the sun keeps climbing. The temperature dropped sharply and the snow that had fallen a few days ago was frozen and I almost slipped and fell.
When you reach the 1.5 mile rest house, you can see the summit quite close. At the same time, the traffic volume of people increases and we pass each other many times with tourists who enjoy simple experience hiking.
Goal at 5 pm!
I was very happy to see the Bright Angel Lodge, which I should be familiar with, only today.
At the same time, a tremendous sense of accomplishment was born. (end)
I will post my experience of camping in the valley bottom of the Grand Canyon from February 16th for 2 nights and 3 days. (Part 2)
February 17 (2nd day)
The dawn at the bottom of the Grand Canyon was late and it was still dark at 7 o'clock.
It is usually said that the temperature at the bottom of the Grand Canyon is about the same as in Las Vegas, but on this day the entire Grand Canyon was cold and the lowest temperature was -14 ° C above the valley, even at the bottom of the valley we spent the night-2. The temperature was so high that the water in the bottle in the tent was a little frozen.
When I arrived at the campsite last night, it was already dark and I couldn't see anything, but when I got up and got out of the tent, the scenery I saw was amazing.
After breakfast, we aimed for "Ribbon Falls".
It is about 10 kilometers one way on the No Sky Bab Trail, which leads to the Noslim in the Grand Canyon. Unlike yesterday, we will follow a relatively flat road along the Bright Angel Creek (river) through the canyon. I almost forgot that I was in a dry desert area while hiking with the sound of the river flowing as background music from beginning to end.
After walking for about two and a half hours while taking pictures, we arrived at Ribbon Falls.
The place where the water flows down is covered with moss and aquatic plants, and when the sun hits it, it glows green, and I felt that it was emitting a fantastic and mysterious power.
We had lunch slowly while enjoying the scenery of the waterfall, and set out on the way back to the campsite.
On the way, I stopped by at the phantom lunch (inn) in front of the campsite to buy some commemorative souvenirs, but it was said that facilities other than the inn were not open due to the influence of Corona. Phantom Ranch is the only inn in the Grand Canyon and the most unreserved accommodation, but at this Corona Pass, you can't even eat the famous steak dinner just by staying at the inn.
I still had some fatigue from the previous day, so the day's activities ended with a hike to Ribbon Falls and a view of the Colorado River near the campsite. (Continue)
