Challenging the Elements
The North Rim of the Grand Canyon has very strong winters and can be really hot during the summer. So that creates a real challenge for the trees clinging onto those rocks.

In this photo shoot I present the Grand Canyon scenery in monochrome to bring out the tree more clearly with its bizarre forms. The Grand Canyon in the background does not have the main priority in this picture.

The Grand Canyon North Rim is more rugged and weathered. The overall colors are totally different than the South Rim which is located across the Canyon. But it's all part of the Grand Canyon National Park. They have a Visitor Center here, a beautiful Grand Canyon Lodge, and a number of hiking trails, including the Bright Angel Point Trail.

Blanche and Bill Russell who were living in the Stone House would have had this view in the morning when they stepped out of the door. Of course it would have been peaceful, no highway like now next to it.

This is the side view of the Stone House looking at the chimney, the roof (being a huge boulder) and the Hwy 89A in the background. It belonged to Blanche and Bill Russell in the 1930th who settled here when their car broke down. The structure was built with stacked rocks against a large fallen boulder. Later they converted the house into a roadside trading post.
