Grand Canyon 2002    Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona
November 15-17, 2002


These shots were taken on a trip to hike the South Kaibab trail in mid-November.  If you go to the canyon, you gotta descend below the wall. I was at the canyon in 2000, and -- honestly -- didn't find it that inspiring.  I'm sure my Gen-X heritage had something to do with that.  But another part of it is that the canyon just defies comprehension.  The scale is enormous -- more than your field of vision can capture, and more than your depth perception can engage.  It wasn't until I was about four hours into the canyon -- just able to confirm I was, in fact, finally below the rim -- that I really began to comprehend the shear size of the canyon.

The trail you see in the lead photo is Bright Angel; about five hours in.



Camera: Olympus E-10, most fitted with a Hoya Circular Polarizer
