We bid a fond farewell to Sand Hollow State Park and set our
sights on Jacob Lake, Arizona. The cooler weather at this higher elevation and
the beautiful Ponderosa pine forest made a great playground for the girls. We
lounged around in the afternoon sunshine and lingered over nightly campfires to
keep the evening chill at bay. It was a world apart from our days in the
desert.
We ventured to the North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park
for a peak at this iconic landmark. It’s amazing to think that the land was
once level and the Colorado River eroded the landscape to this extent. The
girls have been getting some great geology lessons during our travels and they
have witnessed the erosive power of water first hand.
