Sunrise at Bright Angel Point Grand Canyon North Rim

I arrived at Bright Angel Point two hours prior to shooting this photo before the sun rised. We were staying at a cabin nearby the Grand Canyon Lodge on the North Rim. When you are at the lodge, the views of the grandure and vastness of the scenary are incredible. It is hard to imagine the tremendous uplift that has occurred, leaving the canyon's North Rim 1,000 feet/300 meters higher than the South Rim. Bright Angel Point is 8,148 feet/2,484 meters above sea level.
