Grand Canyon National Park

This is the start of the Bright Angel Trail. It goes to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. As you can see, it is a series of switchbacks.

Overlook

The Watch Tower overlooks the Grand Canyon and is located right on the rim of the canyon in an area called Desert View. The tower was built in 1933 as a gift shop and rest area. The tower was designed to look like an Anasazi (Ancient Pueblo People civilization that disappeared about 1400) watchtower. Now, I believe, you can only go on the first level.
