Briefly about the general area: Places like Rainbow Plateau are magnificent to visit, and Shinumo Rapids is a good local attraction. Now, you may feel that's a lot but there's even more
cool stuff to do here at Bass Trail. It's always good to stop at Bass Rapids, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Colorado River. Why not go to Point Sublime also if you're here; since you're here, you could stop at White Creek.
A spree to Grand Canyon National Park is recommended, and a wonderful place to pop by close by is Muav Canyon. Hotauta Amphitheater is a fine spot; DeMotte Campground is a fine local campground. Why not camp at Indian Hollow Campground while you're here at Bass Trail, and a quick spree to Flint Creek is undeniably a good idea.
