Day Eight, Almost to the Grand Canyon

Car works fine, but oil gauge is still fluctuating. Drove to Winslow where we still had an appointment at the Chevrolet dealer. Oil sensor replaced, and we are on our way once again.

As we approached the Grand Canyon, we first encountered the area of the Little Colorado River. It is part of an Indian reservation.


Notice how flat the land appears...except for the large crack in the earth.


Goes on for miles.


Walking to the blue rail, the view is amazing. The Indians have their handmade items for sale before you can get to the rail. Things like ceramic jars, vases, jewelry, arrows, bows, carvings, etc. the usual. The view is free, however.


Then we keep going up in elevation and end up at about 7000'+, and once again...Snow!! It keeps following us!
