Grand Canyon Side Trip

South Rim

Only this family could make a trip to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon an afterthought....we were all pumped to go to the Petrified Forest and Greg and I realize that we are only 60 miles south of the Grand Canyon South Rim.  So we found a boondocking site just outside the park and went in exploring for the day.   It is breathtaking- but too many tourists and really it is impossible to take a photo or describe it.  The Grand Canyon is one of those places that must be experienced.    We were all inspired and loved the views and the rocks and also the tower at Desert View.  

We had a big brainstorming session about a round house and cool stairs and pictographs on the walls....we aren’t that rich.

  1. My dad was into Dome architecture for years - still is - I know he had construction books on them....they are so cool. I can get them for you (or at least the names of them - then you can maybe find them online or something.) Just a thought

  3. The south rim of the Grand Canyon is the part that most people are referring to when they say they've been to the Grand Canyon. As I mentioned before, the National Park Service has done a wonderful job of creating a little city in Grand Canyon Village, with shops, lodging, camping, etc. When you visit here, your trip can be as easy or as hard as you'd like to make it.
