We left the hotel and traveled southerly to the Grand Canyon North Rim. The trek was approximately 50 miles. Today’s weather called for strong winds – 25 to 30 mph. The road from Jacob Lake to the North Rim was excellent – and there was little traffic unlike yesterday’s Zion travels. We arrived late morning and spent about three hours walking the “rim” trails and outlooks. The winds gusts were serious … limiting some efforts to get on higher grounds for “that spectacular” view. However, the sights were not disappointing. We also met a great family from east Texas – the Lopez Family. We had some great discussions along the trail. Funny, we had nothing in common from the outside ….. however, we had so much in common from the inside. Thank you Lopez Family !!
