Grand Canyon APPROVED!

I finally got my permit approved. I am simply waiting on it to pop into my inbox. I would like to thank the many people in the Grand Canyon Backcountry Office for their help and patience. Though the process needs to be updated and improved, these people work very hard to help people... even the ones that don't deserve it.
