Onto the Grand Canyon

Our next national park stop was the Grand Canyon. Our home base for this amazing place was Kanab, Utah.

The drive from our park to the Grand Canyon, was roughly an hour; and there was significant fire damage for quite a few miles heading into the park. The park officially closes mid October; and although we were now into late November; the weather was still unseasonably warm and there was no sign of snow.

We were on the north rim of the grand canyon; and the views were spectacular. It certainly is big; and deep. There was some haze in the air; but you were able to make out the cars parked at the south rim; roughly 11 miles across; from the sun glistening off of them.

Take at look at the pictures of this natural beauty.
