Grand Canyon Skywalk

Here are some suggestions on what to take along to make your Skywalk experience truly memorable:

• A little patience! And maybe your iPod...waits in line of about 30 minutes are common
• Sunscreen and a hat. There is shade at the Skywalk, however elsewhere there is very little shade, and the sun can really burn out there
• Comfortable shoes and light clothing. Spring and summer are hot in the desert
• You cannot take your camera or any personal effects on the Skywalk. Be prepared to store your belongings in the lockers at the Skywalk.
