Oatman’s “wild” burros are the descendants of burros brought here by the miners in the late 1800s; when the miners no longer needed them, they were turned loose.

Each morning they come into town looking for food. They wander the streets and greet the tourists.

After a quick little stop in Williams, AZ, it was time to take in the Grand Canyon National Park!

Grand Canyon National Park, is home to much of the immense Grand Canyon, with its layered bands of red rock revealing millions of years of geological history.  Perhaps even a few dead bodies!

Viewpoints include Mather Point, Yavapai Observation Station and architect Mary Colter’s Lookout Studio and her Desert View Watchtower.

This place never ceases to amaze me as I think about the early explorers of this region.

The Grand Canyon has an elevation spanning from around 2,000 feet to over 8,000 feet, allowing it to experience a variety of weather conditions. As a result, the temperature generally increases by 5.5 degrees with each 1,000-feet loss in elevation.

The Grand Canyon touches four states: Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado.

Rob told me to back up a couple of steps.  Don’t think he likes me very much.
