Grand Canyon North Rim

After visiting the Vermilion Cliffs-Cliff dwellers for a few hours, we headed towards the Grand Canyon North Rim. The North Rim is 100 feet higher than the South Rim. It was a breath taking view, especially since there were some passing thunderclouds that gave the place some beautiful colors. Personally, I am not a big fan of the Grand Canyon since we had seen the South Rim a few too many times. But I definitely enjoyed visiting the North Rim because of the wonderful Forest we go through to get to Grand Canyon, called the Kaibab National Forest. Because of this Forest and the fog surrounding the lush green trees, the place got a beautiful spring/summer look. Even the road looked beautiful with the different varieties of greens on either side. There were Deer roaming and Birds tweeting away at peace. The place looked like a Disney princess's Forest -just perfect. So here are some of the scenery's i was able to capture:
