This was our first stop on the "Winding Road" tour at the North Rim that would include 4-5 stops. Here we just walked along the side of the rim bordering the parking lot from the south to the north ending at the point where you walk down to get a closer view. We didn't have time for all of the full trails so this one was put on the "next time" list. There are several trail options along the way to Cape Royal at the end of the winding road to the east of the main Park highway.

We walked around the area and captured some great photos of the haze that inherited the gorge this fine morning. It really was very artistic looking. There were a few condors flying around on the north side of the point. I think I have a picture of one on a ledge and one in the air.

For me, sometimes it's just as much about the journey as the destination.
Oh, and once in awhile, don't forget to look back at the trail you've traveled.
