The Grand Canyon is split in two by the Colorado River. There is the North Rim and the South Rim. Both areas are distinct from each other. The North has more moisture and has pine trees. That is where we were today. Pictures can not really show what it is like. Again we had storms and rain. Lightening is a killer here and you don't want to be on the rim when it storms. We had to cut our hike on the Widforss Trail short. (Widforss was an artist who painted watercolors of the Grand Canyon in the 1930s). There are 4 1/2 million people who visit the Grand Canyon. 1/2 million visit the North Rim. We will report on the South Rim soon.
