The Grand Canyon is located in northern Arizona, carved by the Colorado River. Mather Point is a famous viewpoint on its south side. |
The trail into the canyon has a few too many switchbacks for me. |
The Rim Trail is a short, no elevation gain hike with amazing views. |
The El Tovar hotel is a historic hotel located on the south rim. |
The Desert View Watchtower is a short drive east from the Rim Trail. |
It was built in 1932 and also offers amazing views of the Grand Canyon. |
By exposing so many layers of rocks, the Grand Canyon records almost two billion years of geological history. |
The Desert View Tower also has some paintings inspired by the nearby Hopi tribe. |
