Here's a movie clip of my first impression of the Grand Canyon . You need Apple's Quicktime to watch it. The movie is about 4 Meg so it would take about 20 minutes to download with a modem, and it lasts only 15 seconds, so it's not worth it unless you have DSL or Cable.
The Tower at Desert View.
The details.
Here's the view from the top of the tower.
This cracks me up. It seems like every natural place I visit has a stern warning about visitors dying. (See Red Rocks in Vegas.) Yet I haven't died once this trip. They should have warning signs like this when you start a job : "Warning: People die every year who perform this job. Do not take this job too seriously. Many who die have taken their job seriously."
