The Grand Canyon is one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World, and rightfully so!  When I first got a glimpse of the canyon, its shear size was shocking.  In photos it looks massive, but in real life, it is indescribably massive.   You can hike for hours, even days, both along the rim and below the rim, on one of the many different trails available to visitors.   I found that these hikes presented very different views of the canyon.  We were able to witness much more than just the 'postcard' shot.  Here are some photos I gathered of the southern rim.
