NWS Forecaster Conquers Grand Canyon



Senior Forecaster Tom Bird, of the El Paso Area forecast office, and his wife Becky, recently accomplished one of their personal goals by hiking across the Grand Canyon and back again without stopping. This was a hike of around 45 miles, with the loss and gain of about two vertical miles.
