I was sure this Grand Canyon story was finished. We had covered the Rim Trail from end to end, had stunning sunrise and sunset views, and witnessed an awesome rainbow display. Surely we'd seen it all. Our plan was to exit early in the morning and move on to our next destination.
Mother Nature had other plans for us. Depositing an inch or two of wet snow overnight, she provided an entirely new view of the canyon. Could this really be the same place we were cycling in 70 degree temperatures just a couple days earlier?
We made slow progress out of the park, as we stopped at every pullout to check out the view. Although the snow lay in thick layers on the trees surrounding the canyon, there was none down below.
Eventually the sun came out and shadows played across the canyon.
We were in no hurry. As long as the canyon morphed and changed in front of us, we were happy to linger. It was a long, snowy farewell to the Grand Canyon.
I thought my trip to Colombia was cool earlier this month. It was, too. But it was not the Grand Canyon in March. I hope you both come back to the Grand Coulee Dam again some day. Just so I can say hello. Thank you for sharing. You have made my week. Ivan
Your photos of Colombia look amazing, Ivan! That must have been quite the trip. We SO enjoyed the Grand Coulee Dam area, we would love to return and meet you in person!
