GRAND CANYON, Ariz. - A sign at Grand Canyon, that makes people laugh, reads, 'Going down is optional, coming up is mandatory.'Whether hikers are laughing from nervousness or from doubt in the sign's truth, is up to the individual, but the fact remains - going into one of the world's most well-known Canyons is not to be taken lightly.
