Exploring the Grand Canyon's Historic Village: A Journey Through Time
Saddle up as we take a whirlwind tour through Grand Canyon Village, where history echoes and the canyon beckons.
First stop, Verkamp's-since 1898, it's where pioneers and tourists first traded goods, turning simple curios into lasting memories. Today, it's a heritage hub managed by the Grand Canyon Conservancy.
A stone's throw away stands the Hopi House, crafted by Mary Colter in 1905. Designed after ancient Hopi dwellings, it's a cool retreat on hot days, filled with Native American arts.
Next, we'll visit the historic Grand Canyon Railway Depot. Since 1901, this station has swapped dusty stagecoach rides for the grandeur of rail, continuing to ferry wide-eyed explorers from Williams right to the canyon's rim.
Just up the path lies the El Tovar Hotel, a luxurious lodge from 1905 that's hosted the likes of presidents and playwrights. It's a fine spot to dine with a view or enjoy a sunset cocktail.
A hop away is the Bright Angel Lodge, known for Mary Colter's "Geologic Fireplace," showcasing canyon strata right in the hearth. It's a perfect base for those ready to explore the canyon's depths.
Don't miss Kolb Studio, established in 1904 by the adventurous Kolb brothers. Perched on the canyon's edge, it's a testament to the daring spirits who captured the canyon's early photographs.

As we wander down the Bright Angel Trail, feel the canyon's immense scale. This historic trail offers breathtaking views and a path through time, from ancient rock layers to historic rest stops.
Our final hidden gem, Mallery's Grotto, reveals ancient secrets just past the first tunnel on Bright Angel Trail. Look up to see age-old pictographs that tell tales of the canyon's earliest inhabitants.
As our tour wraps up, remember these storied spots offer a glimpse into the Grand Canyon's storied past and vibrant present. For more adventures and tales, head over to GrandCanyonPosse.com. Until next time, keep wanderin' and wonderin', folks!

      @VisitingGrandCanyon Před 2 dny

      I'm mighty pleased you appreciated the tale of the Hopi House! It's a veritable gem, and Mary Colter’s architectural prowess truly ensnares the essence of the region's heritage. Should your curiosity beckon for more stories of yesteryear’s craftsmanship or the hidden whispers of the Grand Canyon, do not hesitate to give a shout! There's a rich tapestry of history yet to unfurl. Thank you kindly for joining us, and I reckon we'll have more grand tales to share soon!

    Not sure how much time this guy actually spent at the north rim but...just go. Altitude acclimation can take up to a month. Drink tons of water. It will help. There's no winter access. You can fly in to Page Az and rent a car from Avis. Lots of blm and national forest for camping.

    • @VisitingGrandCanyon
      @VisitingGrandCanyon Před 28 dny

      "Well, howdy there! Now, I ain't sayin' the North Rim ain't got its charms, but reckon it's good to know what yer saddlin' up for. True, altitude acclimation can feel longer than a month of with the in-laws, and drinkin' water like a thirsty cattle driver sure helps. As fer winter access, yup, it's as closed as a saloon on Sunday. Flyin' into Page, AZ and rentin' a car's a mighty fine idea, and those BLM and national forest campin' spots are like findin' gold nuggets in the stream. So, folks, weigh yer options and pick yer trail wisely. Happy trails to ya!"

    Isn't access to Yaki Point restricted from regular vehicles? How do you get there if not using a shuttle? Did you drive your Jeep there? "Yaki Point is the only viewpoint on Desert View Drive that is closed to private vehicles. It can be only be reached by taking the free eastbound Kaibab Rim (Orange) Route shuttle, departing from the Visitor Center Shuttle Bus Terminal."

    • @VisitingGrandCanyon
      @VisitingGrandCanyon Před měsícem

      Well, partner, my apologies for not bein' clearer than a mountain spring. I didn't saddle up Jackpot and ride all the way to Yaki Point. Nope, I hopped on the shuttle bus at the visitor’s center and rode that in. Now, if you’re lookin’ to avoid the shuttle, you can drive up to Yaki Point Road and hoof it from there. It’s about a half-mile walk, give or take. Though, there ain't no parking lot. You'd be parking on the curb, halfway into the ditch.

    Visited N. Rim just after it opened in May 2017. The place was fantastic. We stayed at the lodge, and I literally reserved a room the moment they were available a year in advance. The accommodation was cramped and very rustic. That was the only negative. Visiting here takes some careful planning, but I highly recommend it.

    • @VisitingGrandCanyon
      @VisitingGrandCanyon Před 2 měsíci

      Howdy, partner! Ain’t that the truth! The North Rim is a hidden gem that takes a bit of savvy planning to unearth. Snaggin’ a room at the lodge a year in advance shows some serious dedication, and it sure pays off with those incredible views. As for the rustic accommodations, well, reckon it’s all part of the charm, ain’t it? Thanks for sharing your experience and reminding folks that the North Rim, while a bit of a trek, is worth every boot-scuffed mile if it's your cup of cactus tea. Happy trails to ya! 🌄🌲

    I’ve been to both the North and South Rim and in all honesty, both are spectacular views. If you want to avoid massive crowds, the North Rim is the obvious choice. In my opinion, you can’t go wrong with either option.

    • @VisitingGrandCanyon
      @VisitingGrandCanyon Před 3 měsíci

      You're spot-on, partner! Both rims offer jaw-droppin' vistas, but if you fancy a quieter experience and dodge them bustling crowds, the North Rim's got that serene charm. Can't go wrong either way-just depends on the adventure you're lookin' for!

    Winter is the best time to visit the Grand Canyon! Less people, beautiful contrast between the snow-covered forested rim and the lower canyon. Flagstaff is beautiful too in the snow, especially the Lowell Observatory at night.

      Howdy, pardner! You're absolutely right about winter bein' the prime time for a Grand Canyon adventure! Ain't nothin' like that serene beauty when the crowds thin out and the snow paints a majestic contrast across the canyon. And Flagstaff sure is a sight to behold in the snow, especially with the twinklin' stars. Did you know Flag is the first International Dark Sky City? Yup, a city ordinance requires that all outdoor lighting be covered on the top to reduce light pollution. That's why the stars shine so bright there, even smack dab in the middle of the city. Anywho, happy trails, and may your winter explorations be as grand as the Canyon itself!

    The Grand Canyon was quite possibly one of the biggest let downs of my life. I know I am in the minority and I hate it, but it just didn’t seem very impressive to me.

      Howdy there, partner! I reckon it's a real shame to hear that the Grand Canyon didn't quite tickle your fancy. It's like that sometimes, ain't it? The world's full of wonders, but not every one of 'em speaks to us in the same way. Maybe next time, you'll stumble upon a sight that leaves you speechless and grinnin' from ear to ear! Don't let one letdown sour the whole adventure, amigo. Happy trails on your next escapade!

      ​@@ronjohnson8119Ah. I see why you didn't like it. You have to go inside to enjoy it. If you are up to the challenge, doing a rim-to-rim hike will definitely change your view of the canyon. It's spectacular!

    What a great channel! I prefer the North Rim, usually staying at Jacob Lake even in winter when the road to the Rim is closed. The Kaibab Plateau is simply beautiful and peaceful to hike through.

      Well, shucks, thank you kindly for them kind words! The North Rim sure does have its own charm, especially with that serene Kaibab Plateau beggin' to be explored. Hikin' through them peaceful trails even in winter must be like takin' a stroll through a cowboy's dream. Here's to more adventures and peaceful moments in them grand canyons!

    Fun video. All valid points. I did a solo road trip from Salt Lake City a few yrs ago in the fall. Came down 89 the whole way down to Kanab where I stayed the night. Next day cut over to Page AZ, checked out the dam and horseshoe bend, then headed down to the north rim. Must say the last hour from Jenny lake on was spectacular. Just spent a few hours at the rim walking the trails along the rim a bit. Fairly crowded considering it was during Covid but it was fine and still probably a lot less crazy than south rim gets. Glad I made the trek, and now I can say I’ve been to the Grand Canyon! I mean, if you’re driving from the north, it really doesn’t make sense to go to the south rim. And conversely, if you’re driving from the south, it doesn’t make sense to go to the north rim IMO.

      Well, partner, sounds like you had yourself quite the adventure! From Salt Lake City to Kanab, then Page, Arizona, and finally to the majestic North Rim - that's a journey worthy of a cowboy's tale. You've experienced the rugged beauty of the Grand Canyon in a way that only a road trip can offer. And you're absolutely right - drivin' from one rim to the other ain't a small feat, so pickin' your route wisely makes all the difference. Though, I made a video all about a road trip from South to North Rim, and all there is to see in between. You should take a gander. Glad to hear you made the trek and soaked in the sights. Here's to many more epic adventures and tales to share around the campfire!

      Howdy there, partner! Much obliged for them kind words about the video. Detailin' the lay of the land is like rustlin' up the finest cattle - it takes patience and a keen eye. Glad you found it helpful! You know, explainin' the ins and outs of modern contraptions can be a real hoot. I reckon even a cowboy from the past like me can figure out a thing or two after some time on the range. If you enjoyed this ride, be sure to saddle up for more adventures on my CZcams range. We'll keep the explanations comin' with a sprinkle of cowboy humor to boot! Happy trails ahead, and keep your eyes peeled for more tales from this time-travelin' cowboy! - The Canyon Cowboy
