Easter in the canyon

We spent Easter weekend on the south rim of the Grand Canyon. I hope you enjoy a few representative photos. If you're interested, you can find the whole set, here.

We actually did this trail (10mi r/t, Bright Angel to Indian Gardens, 6000ft tot. elevation change) but started from an entrance without a "Crampons Recommended" warning. Goodness was it icy. We all fell and I still hurt nearly a week later (but the hike was worth it).

Continually reminded me of the lone Cypress at Pebble Beach.

No one understands why I like this photo so much. That's El Tovar in the background.

East rim entrance.

On the return trip, we stopped at the experimental community brainchild of Paolo Soleri, Arcosanti.
