Please bare in mind these images were taken with a digital camera only capable of producing a 500 KB Jpg picture.
The look out points at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon
Starting from the East most view point
When taking photos at an altitude at or over 6000 feet you should use a "UV" filter to take out the bluish cast that the Ultra produces.
As you can see I did not because they do not make on one for this inexpensive camera.
Desert View
*****************************************************************
Looking out of one of the windows
Looking East from the top of the tower.
I do believe this is why they call this Desert View.
*****************************
2 floors down.

Looking South towards the parking lot area.
************************
Looking North from the top floor window.
**********************
See the Raven flying over head?
Just in case you did see it.
****************************************
Well, as much as I hate to think about it, it's time to find the stairs down and out of here.
Hummmmm,
I think it's going to be more difficult going down than coming up these steps.
Sure am glad there is a hand rail to hold on to.
*****************************
Back out side. I don't know what this other structure was.
*****************************
Just beyond it is a very nice place to sit and view the canyon.
******************************
I think it's about time we started out to see the next point, don't you?
Next stop
No, it's not nava-joe - it's Nava-ho.
****************************************
Come-on Earle give us one last good look
OK, how's that?
