Weather 60 Sunny and snow on the ground
Grand Canyon National Park
277 river miles long, up to 18 miles wide, and a mile deep

| Watch Tower |
The vastness of this natural wonder is hard to put into words. It has been a place I have wanted to see since childhood. Timeless.
Tip: There is an East and West entrance into the Park. We started at the East entrance and the first scenic view is the Watch Tower. As you continue the 25 miles headed west and you stop at each lookout point if you view back along the Rim you will see what looks like a thimble. After the second or third stop we realized what we could see was the Watch Tower, which is very cool. In fact you can see it when you get all the way to the other side at the Grand Canyon Village!!! Also you will be able to see across to the North Rim at points that are 90 miles away. We have picked out a few pictures to post but they almost look unreal - again like postcards.
Another Tip: At the Village you need to take the Shuttle Bus to see the Hermit Road - no cars are allowed. It's free.
