Grand Canyon National Park to Kanab, UT
This is a top pick! I don't want much from my government... really, I don't. BUT, I do think a simple road sign on Federal National Park lands that says "Next gas 200 miles" is not that much to ask for, do you? We left the Grand Canyon after checking out sunrise and our ...

Ye Olde Grand Canyon
This is a top pick! ... us centuries old rock drawings We hadn't realised that one side of the river was the Indian reservation and the other is National park. When we got to Horseshoe bend Dee spotted a huge bird circling the cliffs. Martin grabbed his binoculars and ...
natural world wonder
Again I had to wake up at 5AM and take the bus to the grand canyon. The tour was pretty well organized with breakfast and lunch provided and nice seats, but it took a long time to get to the canyon and back so we could only spend 2 hours at the canyon in ...
Casey's and a Lot of Erosion

Ladies and Gentlemen: The Grand Canyon!

... !) and drove for 5 and a half hours to Tusayan (strange to be on the other side of the road!!), just outside the Grand Canyon National Park then grabbed a microwave pizza and went to bed - exciting day! Only found myself on the wrong side of the road once ...
The World's Grandest Hole
Grand Canyon is a beautiful place by night. Looking down I see the Colorado River glowing silver in the light of the full moon, while millions of stars glitter above the towering walls of granite and sandstone that rise almost a mile over my head. ...
Grand- South Rim and Inner Canyon
