Just Another Day At The North Rim

Yesterday was my project day, and since there was nothing to do in the office, I took a drive up to Point Imperial and Cape Royal.  The drive up was gorgeous, as usual.

The fork in the road: turn right to get to Cape Royal, turn left to get to Point Imperial.
Still on the way to Point Imperial.

When I got there, my objective was to walk around and talk to the visitors there. They always have questions, and if I can answer them, I do. Yesterday, everyone wanted to know about the fire in Flagstaff.  Point Imperial is one of the most visited viewpoints at the North Rim. I can see why:

 

Ooooooooo!
Ahhhhhhhhh!

After about an hour or so, I left, and headed out towards Cape Royal. I wanted to go to the geology talk given by the Interpretive Ranger up there–it started at 2:30.  I had enough time to stop by Greenland Lake. Greenland Lake is the only “lake” here. It is created by melting snow. By August, it will be dried up until next spring.

Make a wish and blow!

While I was at Greenland Lake, the battery in my camera died, so I was not able to take any more pictures. But I continued on to Cape Royal, and met up with Ranger Gaelyn. Even though this is my third season working here, I have not ever made it to the geology talk. I usually have other duties and don’t have time to go. She did a fabulous job of explaining how the Grand Canyon was formed.  Next time you got to a national park, make a point of going to the Ranger Programs.

    Thanks for the plug. I always love going out on the Walhalla Plateau. And thanks for all the roves. You should give your count to Robin.
