Grand Canyon - North Rim

Kanab, UT

Made it to the North Rim today... barely. Wind was blowing like crazy, they closed one of the long routes because of wind and downed trees. Even one of our magnets blew off the side of the truck. Made the drive a little more difficult as I was always correcting with the gusts.

But we collected everything that wasn't closed, so we should finish up the North Rim tomorrow.

Here's a map of where we drove today.

We took a short hike out to Bright Angel Point, right by the North Rim Lodge. With the winding gusting and steep cliffs on either side; made it a fun little trip.

Here's some pics from today...
Here's two pics from Bright Angel Point...
Here's a quail (I think)... that decided to jump up on our truck while we weren't paying attention. Kinda freaked us out, but I think it was the other way around and it was pissed at us... or it just wanted some food.
