Congratulations on your amazing hike! Four days after you did this hike I completed my first rim2rim at 66 years old :). It was my first hike of over 20 miles in my life and like you I'm very proud of myself for going through with it! I hiked down the South Kaibab and up the North Kaibab. I'm not gonna lie, the last 5 miles was tough and I too was hallucinating a little. Luckily my wife was there to drive us to our hotel in Kanab Utah an hour and a half away :).
Thank you! Congrats on your hike, I hope to do that same one next year!
I have just discovered that I want to do the rim to rim so thanks for sharing the inspiration! I will be 60 in December.
That's amazing! Good Luck!
Wow, you are absolutely incredible! What drive, persistence, and dedication. You and your journey were absolutely inspiring. Great great work!
Thank you so much, you are so sweet! It was definitely a challenge but also unforgettable! thanks for watching!
Your channel is so underrated! Can’t believe the treks you do solo and at night w weather conditions. So impressive I need to find friends that would push me like your videos do. Thanks for the effort and sharing
Thank you so much! 🥹 I’m gaining traction, growing slowly! I’ve got a bunch of trips planned for 2024, hope you stick around!
What you did - the Rim to Rim to Rim, AND the way you did it, is absolutely incredible. What an inspiration for the rest of us. This hike is still on my bucket list
Thank you so much! Ive gotten a lot of mixed comments on this hike. I have a great time even though the tough times. Im looking forward to doing South Kaibab to North Kaibab in October!
I've only listened/watched this for about 10 minutes and this is the first time I've seen any of your videos. You're very good at this...the information in live footage and the narration are really good. Hope you're still doing it and having fun...stay safe.
Wow, thank you! I do love it still! Happy to have you here.
@@trailandtravel Finally finished watching it...life interrupted me. You're insane for hiking that at night...but that is one heck of an accomplishment. Great job...and great bravery. Definitely subscribed and ready to watch more.
@@nathanriggs1125 thank you! Glad to have you, I hope you enjoy my channel!
Awesome job on this impressive hike 👏 I'm not brave enough to hike in the dark lol.
Thank you! It was definitely a bit scary but totally doable!
You are so cool! I'm doing Rim to Rim to Rim for the first time (first of any Rim adventure too) in about a month. 2 nights at Bright Angel Campground.
Thank you! I hope you have a great time! It's truly incredible. I'm slightly jealous that you get to spend two nights at the bright angel campground! That sounds amazing! Good luck on your trip!
WOW...only way i would do this is by myself. You are an inspiration... Might just consider this next few years.
It's such an incredible solo adventure! very difficult though be sure you are well trained!
I can't imagine being at the Grand Canyon and hiking in the dark and not bieng able to see the amazing beauty around you. What an accomplishment though! Way to go!
I got to see a lot of it on the way to the south side! The only way to complete the rim to rim to rim is to hike at least partially in the dark. Next year I’m thinking south rim to north, that way I can all the beauty on south Kaibab! Thank you!
Is it possible to camp down in the canyon?
yes its just really hard to get a permit to camp@@amyharris7337
Well done another enjoyable video. I often watch hiking videos on trails that we are considering doing ourselves to get a sense of what’s involved and I feel like your video did that for us and love the comments about what you’re experiencing, difficult areas and things to consider. Not sure we’re gonna be as ambitious as you were, but we are going to do it soon. Thanks again and look forward to the next video.
Thanks for watching! Im glad you enjoyed it. It was a tough hike but so rewarding!
This hike actually made me emotional. Memories flooding back as a Boy Scout backpacking all over the Southern California mountains and Yosemite as well. Which I watched just before this one. Keep hiking and vlogging Erica. Love it!
Awe, I'm glad that you enjoyed it and that it brought back great memories! Thank you so much for watching!
at 13:25 when you try to capture the solar eclipse, you can actually see the shape of the sun obstructed by the moon captured in the lens flare. The bright spot of blue shape that looks like a crescent moon just right of the main sun flare. So you kind of did! Great vid :)
that's awesome! I'm glad it came through, I didn't think that it would! Thanks for watching!
Ok, YOU ROCK! I like how you explain your preparations, your emotions, and true expectations throughout your hikes. So refreshing to hear/see original content w/o the hype and drama other content creators post. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! I try to keep my videos authentic to my experience. I feel like people can relate more that way! Thanks for watching!
your pace is insane wow! so freakin cool! i backpacked the canyon last year and aiming for r2r next year! you’re an inspiration sister!
Thank you! That's awesome, id love to backpack it some day!
Thank you for taking us along on this lovely trip. I went South Rim to Phantom Ranch and back out on Bright Angel twice in College, a long time ago.
You’re welcome! Thanks for coming along for the trip. It’s such an amazing place, I’m grateful I got to experience it!
I randomly stumbled across this video while looking for information on hiking in the GC for the first time. I simply had to watch the entire video and feel so inspired now to go hiking in GC but also just inspired to see a female solo hiker achieve something that is beyond amazing and scary. Couldn't help but had to clap for you as you reached the end of the trail !!
Thank you so much for watching! Your support means a lot! I hope you enjoy hiking in the Grand Canyon, it's a special place!
Great video, this is my favorite place on earth. Being in the canyon is so special and you only know if you’ve been down in it.
Thanks for watching! It truly is so special!
This is pure art! What a beautiful atmosphere my friend! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoyed watching. 🙌🏽
Enjoyed that a lot. Cool idea to hike during the eclipse. I’m super inspired for my hike this October!
Thank you for watching! It was really cool, Ill be hiking south rim to north rim this October.
It's wild how quick the miles go in the dark.
Great job! I hope you journaled your thoughts while it was still fresh so you can read later. My hubby and I are in our 70’s and are heading to the south rim. Hiking is our favorite hobby next to rock hounding!
Thank you! I hope you guys enjoy the Grand Canyon! Its truly an amazing place!
There is some really nice scenery on the SK. Hopefully you'll schedule it so that you see it in the daylight sometime. The detour to Ribbon Falls isn't very long and Ribbon Falls is quite pretty, and a nice spot to sit and rest. Congratulations on a great hike and on your accomplishment.
Yes I plan on doing south Kaibab to north next year! I did the detour to ribbon falls on my north rim to south rim hike last year, it was so beautiful. The only reason I didn’t do it this year was pure mileage. 50 miles already seemed like a lot to do, I didn’t want to add a detour. But I’ll definitely be visiting ribbon falls again next year when I do south to north!
I’m doing this solo for the first time this December. I’m pumped. Will be my first solo backpacking trip. Thank you for documenting and sharing. ❤
Wow that sounds amazing! I hope you enjoy it! Im not sure if the water stations will be running so be aware of your water sources. It's such an amazing hike, have an incredible time!
"but that's crazy...." great accomplishment. It's always amazing to me how many people visit the GC but never go into it. We are planning our R3 for early November. My wife has done it 2X, I have only hiked Rim to River to Rim....we run, so the plan is to run the downs and across the box. BA looks like it will be closed in parts so we will do SK both ways.
Thank you! Make sure to get plenty of water at phantom ranch SK doesn’t have any water stops. I’m sure your wife will know what to expect! Good luck with R3, it will be quite the experience!
Wow, I only went down and up again in the middle of the summer. That was already quite a challenge. I hope to come back there again in the future. Now I live in the flat and wet Netherlands (Europe). Great to follow you on your adventures.
The Grand Canyon is HARD to hike in the heat! I hope you get a chance to visit again! It’s a spectacular place. Thanks for watching!
Simply amazing!!!
Well done, you did a great job and I enjoyed your video very much. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed watching!
Let's go!!
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Amazing, I loved your journey and video!
Thank you! It was a big one, but it felt pretty amazing to accomplish! ❤️
Nice. Early in the video you mentioned your mileage and time. Most people will probably try to call "BS" but I know better. I've seen you do 4.2 miles uphill in 95 degree weather in an about 90 minutes. I'm fortunate to have survived it. LOL
Lol I consider myself a decent hiker. I also tracked on strava and posted my stats later on in the video. Heat is usually my nemesis when I hike, I do much better when it’s cool.
This was an amazing accomplishment. I did a R2R two years ago but with an overnight stay at Phantom Ranch. Next goal is to do it in one day. You are an inspiration 🙏
Thank you! That sounds amazing, I’d love to backpack into the grand canyon sometime! Thanks for watching!
I'm so glad I found your channel!! I love your storytelling style. Rim2rim in the Grand Canyon is one of those amazing life experiences, isn't it!? Congrats on your hike!
Thank you so much! I feel like you get a much deeper experience with the Grand Canyon when you're able to hike from one side to the other! Its unlike anything I've done before!
wow 😮
Yeah it was a big hike!
Nice job. This put a smile on my face because I also did the R2R2R on the same eclipse day. 😊
We probably passed each other. Which direction did you cross?
I did N rim-Bright Angel-N rim. Since I started few hours earlier, we probably crossed each other as you were going up the Bright Angel trail.
No way! That's amazing! Its so fun to hear from people who were on the trail at the same time as me!
Great video! Great achievement!!! Thanks for posting it
Thank you so much! It was such an amazing experience!
This is one bad ass trip. Good job and thanks for sharing!
Thank you, It was amazing! Thanks for watching!
wow you did good. i almost die of dehydration hiking the south kaibab to colorado river. i miscalculated the amount of water i needed but i am glad i push through it and got back to my truck at visitor center at midnight.
Thank you! Wow I'm so glad that you made it out okay. Ive herd stories of people who were not so lucky. The south Kaibab trail is a tough one to ascend, especially without any water sources.
Incredible views and video detailing your experience! Well done.
Thank you!
Wow this is amazing! Congratulations
Thanks for watching! It was quite an adventure! 😅
NR to SR Manzinta comes before CW. Then you pass by the Ribbon Springs trail on your way to PR/BA.
HG was your 4.5 mile rest stop.
Great hike.
Yeah I got a little mixed up… thanks for watching!
When I saw a video of someone doing r2r2r the first time I was 🤯🤯🤯. I did it with a bailout option after NK but knew walking up NK I’d switch around and keep going. It is a fantastic hike in cool weather. I’ve done 8 trips this last year to GC, r2r, r2r2r and r2river2r are just great challenges in an amazing place.
That’s amazing! It’s fun to hear from people who have also accomplished this hike! I’m looking to do south to north next year!
It’s Cottonwood Campground. And Manzanita comes before you hit Cottonwood when descending from North Rim.
Oops thanks for clearing that up!
Cottonwood camp ground? I've R2R, and R2R2R I've have never experienced the numbers of people you had. It seems almost every clip had people in it...congrats you rocked it (1/100k ever?).
I always seem to experience so many people on this trail! Its always a surprise to me!
Superb hike and video! Well done!
Do you think there would be more night time hikers during a full moon, when the landscape would be somewhat lit by the moonlight?
Thank you! I would guess that more people would night hike with the full moon. Because the solar eclipse, I was hiking with a new moon. So it was pitch black!
I hiked out on the South Kaibab Trail back in May of 1976. We left Phantom Ranch at about midnight under a full moon. No visibility problems at all. An experience I've never forgotten.
That sounds incredible! What a great memory! The low visibility was due to the new moon, which also allowed me to experience the Annular Solar Eclipse at Phantom Ranch. It was absolutely worth it!
@@leestamm3187
Truly incredible feat and really nicely documented. A day you'll never forget for sure!
Thank you so much, it’s was quite the experience! 🙌🏽
Fanstasic video. Great job, amazing.
Thank you!!
Wow, I thought I’d watch only a few mins and skip through but you kept me captive.
I backpacked SR-NR-SR 2 yrs ago with a friend and thinking of doing the reverse with my brother soon. We’ll definitely not do it the way you did it which was impressive!
We’d prefer to hike and see the scenery during the day and sleep/camp at night.
I bet your calfs are impressive! Thanks for sharing your experience!
Thanks for watching! Im glad you enjoyed it. I am planning to do SR to NR this fall so I can experience it during the day! I just really wanted to push myself to do R2R2R! Someday id love to do it as a backpacking trip.
@@trailandtravel well girl, you did push yourself- inspiring!
Imma show my brother your video to see if he wants to do it your way or my way.. we’re thinking during the late fall or winter so there’s snow at the top - if the stars align maybe we’ll see you on the trail ; )
@@Montanho09 awesome! If you give it a try be sure to train before hand! 🙌🏽
Congrats!!! Amazing accomplishment and great video!!! I may attempt the R2R or R2R2R in October. I'm heading to Sedona and Flagstaff next week and will scout it out. I'll watch your Wilson Mountain video now (although it will take a lot to sway me away from doing Bear Mountain as my main Sedona hike).
Thank you! R2R is such an incredible experience. It's such an intimate way to explore the Grand Canyon! I haven't done bear mountain yet but I hope to someday! I hope you enjoy sedona!
Great job, that is a phenomenal accomplishment!!!! Thank you for sharing the journey with us!!
Thank you, It was a crazy experience! I have a great time!
Thank you! It was an incredible experience!
Inspirational journey/story! Glad I came across your channel and I hope to replicate your footsteps in the not so distant future 😊
Thanks for watching! It’s an incredible hike, I’m very fortunate to have done it! 🙌🏽 Sending you good luck for when you do it!
Congratulations on the completion. thanks for bringing us along.
Thank you! It was quite the feat!
Congrats! That is quite an accomplishment! Great video as well!
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing! Congratulations on this great journey! 🎉
Thank you for watching, I was quite the experience!
Flippin rockstar!
Thank you!
So brave and very good story telling. Wonderful!
Thank you so much!
So awesome! Congrats! 🎉 What kind of shoes did you wear? My feet would’ve been wrecked
Thank you! I wore a pair of highly cushioned running shoes, which I typically don't hike in. I felt like they were necessary for this type of milage. Trust me my feet were in rough shape after this! lol
Beautiful "".Belleza de naturaleza" Gran cayon del colorado".Fallas Geogicas milinarias!!!Lindo video-ranning🏜❤️
Thank you!
Bravo!! Inspiring!!
Thank you! 🙏🏼
I live in Arizona and I admire what you did, good video
Thank you so much! I had an amazing time!
Absolutely incredible!
Thank you! It was a lot of work, but SO worth it. This year I am going to hike South Rim to North!
Well done... that is a massive hike. What day did you hike it? I was hiking down from NK on Oct 15 and may have seen and had a brief chat with you.
I left NK on the 14th and was climbing out the 15th. We definitely would have passed each other and probably had a chat. I can’t imagine there were many other solo hike climbing out of NK on the 15th, I didn’t see anyone else hiking north through the night! Thank you for stopping and chatting with me, my interactions with other hikers really helped me through those last few miles!
Yes, we chatted. I asked you about your hike and you said you were on the last of your solo R3. I was so impressed how well you looked. The last 2 miles of the north rim is hard, as you know. Great video.
@@fwilly8787 Well it was great to meet you! Thanks for watching!
This is amazing. And on my birthday! I am hoping to spend my 40th birthday in 1.5 years at the Canyon. Not sure if I can do rim to rim, but hoping to see as much of it as I can. Certainly not rim to rim to rim. You're incredible!
Thank you so much. I hope you have an amazing time visiting the Grand Canyon, it’s quite an experience!
Turned 40 in mid April
I'm booked on a flight from STL PHX on July 30th
I just wanna experience being there
Don't wanna "do" too much but don't wanna just look and leave
@@ClaySTL I totally understand that, I think the majority of people who visit the Grand Canyon have that mentality. But there is something so special about hiking across it!
@@trailandtravel temp permitting I'll def give it a twirl
Those 3a starts ....dark....can't see other than the headlight on a helmet.....
Intriguing but to me you weren't comfortable walking around your own room in the dark until at least a couple months
I'll be damned if I walk basically the edge of a cliff ......somewhere I've never been
But I'm excited
Even if I go rim to river and back whichever way I came
Definitely taking advice of what snacks and the water spots
Already looking at an insolated back pack
Would hope to freeze at least 10 bottled waters of I find a big enough pack
Raisins..... electrolytes in the water
Steady looking at advice
Sorry for the long reply
@@ClaySTL the early start definitely help. Otherwise you are hiking the biggest climbs in the heat of the day, which is brutal! If you can I’d recommend getting a 3L water bladder that you can fill up instead of the frozen water bottles, it will take up a lot less space and you can refill at the water taps (as long as they are on, another thing to check on before you go). I understand your worry with hiking in the dark, but if you have a good headlamp you’ll be fine. And most likely you won’t be alone!
Nice job
Thank you!
You should put in for the lottery at Phantom Ranch, and then hike in the daytime when you can see everything.
I would love to do that next year!
THX! You are awesome!!!
Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed it!
Amazing hike, great video, have a few buddies planning this hike 1 direction next year. What did you film with? GoPro? Phone? Camera?
Thank you! I used a GoPro 10 to film it! I just upgraded to the GoPro 12 and it’s so much better! Thanks for watching!
Wow! You are amazing. So brave to hike by herself and super strong to be able to endure all of those miles! God bless. What an incredible journey. I am so happy to be on the journey with you. I am hoping to be able to visit GC this year.
Awe, thanks you so much. It was an amazing journey! Thank you for following along with me. I hope you get to visit the Grand Canyon it’s truly incredible!
Great video! Inspiring and informative along with the fantastic scenery of the canyon.
The tracks you saw could not have been from a dinosaur as all the rock layers that form the canyon walls are no younger than paleozoic in age, which pre-dates the age of dinosaurs.
Thanks for watching! And thank you for informing me about the tracks, I wasn’t sure what there were but they were pretty neat!
They are 313 million year old tracks of some kind of reptile in the Manakacha Formation it has been determined. Noticed in 2016 by a geologist leading some students on a hike on this trail
That's AMAZING!
Great video!
Thank you!!
Good job!
Thank you!
How did you train?
If you have a link to it, or a printable or something anything. Thanks
I am making a video this week that will talk more about my training and the logistics of this hike! Be sure to catch that video!
You hiked the Grand Canyon at night !!!! 😮. NO WAY 😅
lol yep, it was a bit scary but I did it! 🙌🏽
love the video. I've always wanted to hike rim to rim. Do you have to pull any permits for this hike?
Thank you! No you don’t have to get permits for the hike. Just the campsites if you backpack it.
you are amazing
Thank you!
How do you do all these adventure solo! Much respect!
Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy!
Bravo !respect mademoiselle..
Thank you! It was a lot of work, but so amazing!
Enjoyed your video!
Thanks for watching!
Great rim job!
😂😂😂
What kind of hiking shoes are you using? I have total respect for you.
back then I hiked in a pair of Altra lone peak 6s, now I hike in the Altra Olympus 5s. In this video I hiked in my running shoes, new balance with lots of cushion. I felt like they would be more comfortable and supportive for my feet for this kind of milage and I so grateful I did. I would have been in a lot of pain if I tried to do this in my lone peak 6s, they just don't have the support for the mileage I did. Thanks for watching!
Great video
Thank you!
I see at 39:30 ish your setup at Mathers campground. Do you have video or some details that you can share regarding your camping gear I see that one of your duffel bags had a tag on it. I assume you were able to get your camping gear shuttled to Mather's campground or to the south rim lodge? I must have watched your video about a dozen times already as I am working on the logistics for 4 for this adventure. I'm planning late September early October. My wife and friend want to do the rim to rim to rim But they also want to take it all in visit the waterfall I'm hoping I could do the adventure within three to four days. I've shared your video with a quite a few of my friends awesome content. Thank you.
th-cam.com/video/XjPslSypEAc/w-d-xo.html
Here is the link to my video where I talk about the logistics of doing rim to rim to rim. Yes I got my duffle bag shuttled across from north rim to south and back the next day. This adventure definitely takes a lot of planning! I have also done ribbon falls on a previous trip (th-cam.com/video/5olmTzZMgbs/w-d-xo.html). It's beautiful I highly recommend, it will only add a mile(ish) to your hike. As far as gear I packed as if I was going to camp on the south rim, I brought many of the items that I typically take backpacking. Tent, Sleeping Bag, pad, inflatable pillow, cook set + Fuel, extra food, electrolytes, power bank + cords, extra clothes + socks. I think that was pretty much it. If you're planning on backpacking it I could try to pack light. The more weight you carry the more difficult the elevation gain and loss will be.I also have videos where I pack for backpacking trips, that may be helpful to give you an ideal of my gear set up. (th-cam.com/video/u_pta4yTCoI/w-d-xo.html). I hope this was helpful! Good Luck on your trip!
Wow
I know right!? 😅
How do you only have 5k subs?!
I will take that as a compliment! thank you! My channel is slowly picking up speed! thank you for watching, I hope you subscribe! 😉
@@trailandtravel oh girl it absolutely is! I binged a few videos and subbed the same day I found your channel. Glad you’re getting some momentum.
Hi
I made the rim to rim trek on 10/14 and 15. I was doing the world record for oldest man crossing on foot. I would love to contact you.
Wow that's amazing! congrats!!
You weren’t really solo were you? I’ve heard the trail is pretty densely populated.
By solo I mean I wasn’t with anyone, I was by myself! Yea there were other people on the trail but I wasn’t hiking with any of them. This year there were far less people on the trail than last year when I did this hike. It was very different.
Thanks for the video. How did you filter the river water to drink?
I have a 1 liter water filter by Katadyn. I use it all the time it’s great!
Start on the south rim if you want an even bigger challenge!
Idk.. lol going up the north rim after 40+ miles on my legs was pretty dang challenging! I’m definitely going south Kaibab to north rim next year! I want an actual view of south Kaibab!
I don't understand why you would do rim to rim to rim, only to hike a big part of it in the dark. You missed out on the views on the second leg of the trip. I guess it was just an endurance feat, but I sure wouldn't have done it this way. What's the point of hiking the Grand Canyon if not to see it?!
This was the second time that I had hiked rim to rim. I did get to a lot of the beauty in the Grand Canyon and there was only an 8 mile section of this trail that I didn't get to see. I plan on doing rim to rim again this year from south to north so I get to see this section. I don't think most people could do this hike even if they tried. So Im really proud of this accomplishment despite your reaction. Have you ever done this hike before?
What week in October did you do this?
It was the 15th in 2023.
Wish you did not put music in the background. Rather hear the real sounds
I completely understand. I feel like the music really helps build and support the story of my experience. Thanks for your input.
10:27
thanks for watching!
Great job. That being said, hiking the larger part in the dark somewhat defeats the purpose of hiking the Grand Canyon and the spectacular views it offers. I believe you have the capacity completing an R2R2R (starting from the south rim), within 20 hours, doing the larger part of the hike in daylight; hiking early June). I composed a playlist of POV videos covering all the major trails in the grand canyon: th-cam.com/play/PL9C-kwDdihd75ejgoe-3PrnuO7fIOp0Mv.html
Cheers.
Thank you. I actually hiked the larger part during the day. There was only a 8 mile stretch on south Kaibab that I didn’t get to experience in the light. This was my second time hiking rim to rim. I’ve been surprised with all the people who have had something to say about me doing part of the hike in the dark. lol i think that it the only way to cover this much mileage is one go is to hike in the dark. I am planning on doing R2R south Kaibab to north rim this fall - mid October. So I can experience that part of the trail I missed. I was really proud of this hike and what I was able to accomplish in such a short period of time! Thanks for watching!
@@trailandtravel You should be proud of this hike. It is quite an achievement. Cheers.
@@RubiHammer thank you!
@@trailandtravel Sure. You can look into the link I provided above, for complete POV videos showing how I managed the time hiking the Grand Canyon. Admittedly , it does require some trail running to complete most of the distance in daylight. Cheers.
@@RubiHammer I see, I haven't quite got into trail running yet. but maybe in the near future! thanks again!
Also you don’t even have a dog!! Daaang
Not yet, I love dogs though. Hoping to get one soon!
Hope to find someone with ur qualities 😩🤩 💍
I married someone with very different qualities! He balances me out well! ❤️
Please do not encourage people to do this. It’s so silly. Just take your time and enjoy the hike. It’s not a competition. People die doing this.
This video was not to encourage people to do this hike. I believe that this hike should only be attempted by high level hikers/athletes. My objective with this video was to share my experience. Thanks for watching!
People die during the heat. Ultramarathon people do way more than this constantly. The key is to have the knowledge on how to manage the weather conditions you are in. Just because you are too afraid to push yourself doesn’t mean others shouldn’t.
A lot of people run 100km or longer events these days (all my running friends do), and those of that do look for other routes to run with scenery like this, and we enjoy it and take our time, we just happen to do it faster and see more in a shorter period of time, and get to see things a lot of people never get to see. Its fun for us, we train for it, and are prepared for emergencies. I don’t judge people that walk or hike, I do as well, so don’t judge us for enjoying running;) Thanks for posting your adventure!
No judgement! I actually applaud those who run the Grand Canyon! Its no joke!
