This Fall we're heading back out west. COVID will be in our thoughts as we plan for adventures while we stay safe! Our plans are to head first to Colorado, then zip over to Utah. Lots of hiking and biking are planned along our route.

The Canyon is still GRAND !

We pulled into the Desert View campground at the east entrance to Grand Canyon National Park a couple of days ago.  Although we have been here many times (the last time on a Arizona River Runners raft trip in 2001), we had never driven in from the east heading toward the South Rim.

Due to mild Fall weather, Desert View campground was still open, and we chose a great site only a few hundred yards from the canyon's edge.  Walked the half mile over to the visitor center and shops, and just kept looking at the views of the canyon.  Great memories of rafting and the long ago memory of hiking down to the Colorado River.

We're looking forward to our friends, Ray & Ann, joining us in a few days where we are now camped at the Village at the South Rim.
