Friday Postcard: The Grand Canyon

Friday Postcard: The Grand Canyon

Written by Steph

Topics: Photos

I’ve been to the Grand Canyon twice; once as a little kid and once just a couple years ago. Both times my reaction has been the same: It just doesn’t look real. It’s so massive and so awe inspiring that it literally looks like a movie back-drop.

    I know what you mean! I took a helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon a few years ago, and it felt more like a motion-simulator ride than real. It’s just such a dramatic landscape, it’s hard to believe it’s real.

    Somehow I’ve never made it to the Grand Canyon (despite a few trips to Arizona), but your picture convinced me even more that I need to go! It’s so close, yet so far away…

    While I think the Grand Canyon is beautiful, I think there are two ways to enjoy it even more: Visit in the winter when it’s covered in snow and go to the North Rim, where there are fewer people and the scene takes on a whole different look.

      I’ve never been in winter but I have seen it from both rims and I do thinks the North Rim is more interesting.

    Beautiful shot Steph! I rafted through the Grand Canyon in 2003 – it was unbelievable.
