Grand Canyon Nat Park N Kaibab Trail Roaring Springs. Where the descending North Kaibab Trail meets the flatter bottom of Bright Angel Canyon, 5 miles/ 8 km from the North Kaibab Trailhead, Roaring Springs may be seen. Here, water gushes forth directly out of the cliffs, cascading over moss and fern to form Bright Angel Creek (which will be a constant companion all the way to the Colorado River). This giant spring provides drinking water for every visitor and resident within Grand Canyon National Park. The water is delivered to the South Rim via a pipeline buried beneath the North Kaibab Trail (installed 1965-1970). You can see this amazing pipeline as it stretches across the Colorado River on the underside of the Bright Angel Trail's Silver Bridge. NPS
