A happily married father of two, shaken by a message written in a birthday card for his daughter, abruptly leaves his family for a week long trek through the Grand Canyon. As we follow his solo hike, we see his memories of an earlier trip through the Grand Canyon with a different woman.

Shot with only the equipment that a cast and crew of eight could carry on two 41 mile hikes (one in 20 degree December and one in 95 degree June), Granite Rapids Moon is the first narrative feature to shoot the majority of its footage inside the Grand Canyon.

The family friendly romantic drama contains no nudity, sex, guns, violence, drugs, or strong profanity.
