Description
The day before, the Grand Canyon National Park warned visitors not to come, as a massive winter storm and extremely cold temperatures, along with closed roads, made it uninviting. We tried to find another adventure on our way back to California from the Midwest in late January 2017. As we got closer, we decided that the roads had cleared enough that we should check it out. And are we glad!! It got down to 2 degrees (F) during the night, and was only 19 degrees (F) in midday when I took this photo along the South Rim near the visitors center. Altitude is 7,000 feet.
In 1982, two vacationers observed two UFOs that were reportedly shaped like clouds. Friends of the pair told them other sightings had been reported throughout the previous week. These crafts or ships did not move for a period of six hours, before vanishing into thin air. It is theorized the UFOs were disguised as clouds so as to wait at the appropriate spot for a wormhole to open up and allow them passage to another time or possibly even dimension. I didn't see any wormholes while I was there.
This piece won FIRST PLACE in the Landscapes With a Cloudless Sky contest in October 2020 sponsored by FAA Group, Favorite Photographic Images.
