Another mission accomplished: Marjorie ÒSlimÓ Woodruff, a former Chandler resident and former teacher in the Kyrene Unified School District, who now lives at the Grand Canyon smiles on Tuesday after completing two days of hiking and instructing a group of seven people with the Grand Canyon Lodging and Learning Experience at Grand Canyon National Park. Woodruff, a Phoenix native, has been hiking the Grand Canyon for 45 years, has hikes the Grand Canyon from rim to rim about 50 times and is believed to be the first woman to have ever hiked the canyon from rim to rim when she was an 18-year-old student at Northern Arizona University.
