Rim2Rim Stories: Tragedy to Triumph With Sandrelle Aguirre

The Grand Canyon Hiker Dude Show

Sandrelle Aguirre lost her marriage and her best friend in a span of months. But instead of retreating into the darkness, she used her personal tragedies as a turning point toward the life she'd always wanted—one of taking action and conquering physical challenges that once seemed impossible. Today, Sandrelle shares how the Grand Canyon played such a crucial role in her transformation, and gives a detailed account of her life-changing, two-day Rim-to-Rim.
