First off we are only doing a day hike of Bright Angel Trail, we most likely will only go about 3-5 miles down ( Three Mile Resthouse or if we feel good, maybe the Indian garden ) and also we will be only be bringing a light day pack load, nothing too heavy.
I was thinking of buying some "real rugged hiking boots or hiking shows". But I was thinking in a practical sense, we live here in the Prairies (North Dakota) and I will most likely only be using these once at the Grand Canyon.
I have some really good and brand new Nike ACG trail runners that I use when running in trails, parks etc..
Since we are only going for a 6-10 mile day hike w/ a fairly light load, would my Nike ACG trail runners be appropriate for the scenario and setting?
