Grand Canyon - 5/05-5/06/2007

This is a surprise trip planned by Becky as a part of my B-Day present this year!!! Because she knows I like scenic photography so much she had planned on renting a pro lens for me. Alas the waiting line for lenses was too long by the time I got around to letting out which lens I might rent. Oh well, next time. There are quite a few panoramas and high res photos from this trip. We camped at the main campsite inside the park. They were supposed to be booked, however the campsite was pretty empty, probably due to the cold weather front that was moving through. In fact we got "snow" as we were driving. Kinda a wet, soft hail actually. It did dip down pretty low at night, however the days were not too bad provided you had a jacket or something. This was yet another great camping trip, our second so far.

Becky and I at one of the vista points. People kept on asking how to use my camera. I don't mean which button to press but where to look through. Um... the viewfinder of course. No active LCD displays on any pro digital SLRs...

A little glimpse of the river. If you look closely, you will see the edge of a raft on the right side.

Apparently people love to toss coins out here (on a rock not reachable) probably for good luck. Kinda like a wishing well...

Here is a VERY friendly chipmunk. He got to within a few inches of me while I was changing lenses. I think he wanted some snacks. Only thing he got from me was his photo snapped. :)

A nice closeup view of the trail that heads down to Phantom ranch. It kinda just drops of the face of the earth after this plateau.
