ADVENTURE TOUR COMPANY ADVISES VACATIONERS TO BOOK NOW

Chandler, Ariz. (March 24, 2008) - After one glimpse of the Grand Canyon
landscape, there's no question as to why the park earned the title as one of
the seven natural wonders of the world. Not surprisingly, hiking trips and
adventure tours in the area fill up fast during the summer months.

Ray Hendricks, owner of Just Roughin' It Adventure Company, an Arizona-
based provider of customized hiking and backpacking tours, advises
vacationers to book as early as possible in order to secure desired dates and
guides. 

"Hiking the Grand Canyon is one of the most wonderful ways to experience
the grandeur of this region - often majestic, inspiring and loads of fun," said
Hendricks. "It's undoubtedly a trip that you'll remember for the rest of your
life."

experience levels, from all-inclusive adventures to guide-only hikes

can provide you with a professional guide to just show you a particular trail."
