Looking towards the south rim of the Grand Canyon from a helicopter
We started the day driving from Williams up to Tusayana for a helicopter tour of the canyon. Definitely worth doing so long as you don’t have a fear of small aircraft.
Out the front of the helicopter as we took offThe southern wall of the canyonLooking east across the canyon from the helicopterA mesa in the canyonWill looking right at homeThe northern cliffs of the canyon, covered in snowLooking along the northern rimA view across the expanse of the canyon (sorry about the angle)The pigmy forests surrounding the canyon.
We then headed up to Grand Canyon Village on the southern rim of the canyon.
