It’s funny seeing something as well photographed as the Grand Canyon in person. It was as huge and awe-inspiring as I’d hoped. Dogs weren’t allowed on the trails going into the canyon but the paved rim trail was dog friendly so we took a couple short walks with Rocky at different point along the path.
We picked the best time of year to visit; apparently in the summer the paths are packed, parking lots full and tourists are pushing each other to get to the best views. Despite the shutdown, the park remained open but we were waived in for free again. (Thanks, Trump?)
