This is the final series of photos taken today with my smartphone camera. As you can see, another storm system was overtaking the Canyon from the south and I hit the road soon after taking these pictures. Tomorrow I will post photos of the Grand Canyon Lodge, as well as some closeups I took today with the digital camera.
This was the last picture I took at the southernmost extreme of Overlooks. As the weather moved in I started to retreat out towards the main road. Some of these photos that follow may be from the same vantage point as pictures you’ve seen in the posts above, but show the deteriorating conditions. The final few are from a road with a few Overlooks that you haven’t seen yet.
Isn’t this what I’ve been doing since I got here??
Those storms work great for contrast of lighting / shadow, but also give scale to such an enormous landscape of formations.

Yes, the Canyon is incredibly big, and this only the small portion visible from the North Rim. In a few days I will be on the south side and it offers many more viewing spots. The weather forecast looks good for down there.
