Pictures In And Around the Grand Canyon

IMG_2239

Bottom of the canyon is an old mine, can’t see it but it is supposed to be on the river.

IMG_2168 IMG_2223 We have been home now for several months and I finally got back to going through the pictures taken during our dash home from Mississippi.

 

A lot of these pictures are cloudy and that is from the conditions found at the sites where they were taken.  It was late in the afternoon for most of them and the sun being very bright brought out the haze in the pictures.

 

The Park Service had stopped letting hikers go down into the canyon be the time we arrived, they said it was the end of the vacation season, although by this time my arthritis was keeping me from wanting to walk anyway.

 

 

The Hopi had planted fields way down their on the river.

 

As alway please click on any picture to be taken to the full album.  Also the full album is also open to the public.

Not sure what the people living here did for a living.  There was no animals or farming implements.  Very far from any town or other possible locations???

 

As always please click on any picture to access the full album, which also will have much better resolution on the pictures.  Also please leave a comment if you so inclined.

Thanks For Looking
