This is a picture of our first view of the Grand Canyon. We entered the park from the east because we had read that end of the park offered the best views of the Colorado River. This picture was taken at the Desert View overlook.

Brings back good memories for me... had an opportunity to see the Grand Canyon in the 1980s when I was a student at US...
What an awesome "first glimpse"!!!! Such na inspiring and beautiful piece of Nature. Mickie :)
The view just takes your breath away!
That is one of the biggest "holes" I ever saw.
Very nice shot!
Beautiful view, and you were fortunate enough to get some nice clouds in there to enhance the photo. Nice framing with the trees in the foreground too.
That first glance is indeed awesome. I'll never forget that feeling when I first saw it.
A great picture, but no picture can do it justice.
Looks so cool George.
I love the green river snaking through it down there!
Beautiful shot George. I remember back when Ben and I were dating, we went to the Grand Canyon and camped for a few days. It was so much fun and will always be one of my precious memories of my dear late husband.

Great photo, George. I don't think I can ever see too many photos of that spectacular place. I have been there three times and each time it's an awesome experience.
Wow! Great photo! It makes me want to go back for another visit.
God bless and have a great weekend :-)

Magical!!!!!!
OMG, it's magnificent. One of my dream is to see the grand canyon!
WOW!!! THis is an awesome shot.
I feel like I'm standing on the ledge next to you, George. A fantastic photo with so much to look at!
It is a magic place wherever you see it from. The North Rim was spectacular too as well as the helicopter flight in from the east. It is so much bigger than I imagined.(Everything in America was big)
Wow! Great view! I hope I will be there some day.
Once I enlarged your photo what a magnificent view of the Colorado River I saw.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful journey, George. I enjoyed it immensely!
Happiness always,
Pam
A truley stunning place.... Mother Nature outdid herself there all right. :)
What a breathtaking shot of a picture post-card perfect scene!
Gorgeous! The expanse is breathtaking.
Thanks for visiting The Gardening LIfe. My garden was unscathed by the storm. Thanks for asking.
Now this is one place I'd love to visit. Ever since I watched Eval Kineval attempt to jump it in a rocket when I was a kid I've been amazed by the place.
Am passing an award to you, George. Feel free to pick it up from my site. Happy weekend to you and Betsy! *hugs*
What I'd give for a 'first glimpse'!
I scrolled down George and see you still have some amazing flowers in your yard.
I'm slowly getting back into blogging this week. I've missed your posts my friend.
