Partially down the trail, looking back up from where we started.

 

The trail.

We made it to Cottonwood campground.  Was hot (but low humidity).  Cooling the tired dogs.  We were hiking along a nice stream (Bright Angel?) from about 2/3 of the way down.  The stream comes out of the rock at Roaring Springs (nice waterfall) with some of it being caught by a pipe.  We have been hiking along with pipe (mostly hidden/buried) as it supplies water to the basin campgrounds (Cottonwood and Phantom) and to the whole Grand Canyon Village (pumped up to the South Rim).
