Grand Canyon, Arizona

Entered the Grand Canyon through the south rim entrance two days ago. Planned to leave today, but there is a wind warning for winds up to 50 mph in the area along the I-40 from Flagstaff to New Mexico, where I am heading next. This is the same area where the wind blew open my truck cover before, so I decided to stay another day at the Grand Canyon. It has gotten windy here today too, but at least here I can be in my trailer, rather than towing it. I’ll check for weather advisories later today, before deciding if I will leave tomorrow.

The Grand Canyon is really beautiful (duh!). Glad I came. There is a paved walkway for 13 miles along the rim with free shuttle rides you can get on and off of along the route. Taking a hike along the rim sounds a lot better to me than undertaking the narrow trails down to the canyon bottom.

Cannot understand people walking out onto a narrow ledge, just to get a picture.
