Red Rabbit

Royal and Imperial Points

Recommended Posts

Rica and I went to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon over the Fourth of July weekend. We saw some mule deer, a bobcat and plenty of scenic views along the roadways. We avoided the potential crowd at the lodge and Bright Angel Point, so instead spent a couple of sunsets and sunrises at Cape Royal and Point Imperial.

 

Saturday evening treated us to nice sunset light on Wotan's Throne at Cape Royal.

Both sunrises were spent at Point Imperial and a view of Mount Hayden. Sunday morning had normal yellow light at sunrise.

Sunrise on Monday was very red as there were light clouds, dust and haze to the east to cast a spell upon the morning light.

Hazy pre-sunrise view towards Navajo Mountain.
