Into the Canyon's Heart

Hiking on the Bright Angel Trail brings one to a challenging series of switchbacks known as the Devil's Corkscrew.  The steepness of these switchbacks takes one into the bottommost jagged folds and layers of the Canyon.  In this place, it is worn by Garden Creek on one side and Pipe Creek on the other.  One can touch the Vishnu schist, and trace the intrusions of Zoroaster Granite.
