| Look at that layering, simply gorgeous! |
 |
| I think this is looking down Bright Angel Fault, not the main canyon. |
 |
| I walked on this, in normal shoes, fortunately I did not fall and die a terrible death. |
 |
| I guess the mules get the right of way on the trail |
 |
| When I return I shall hike this terribly fun and safe looking trail. The sad part is that this is probably only 1/4 of the elevation down the canyon. |
 |
| Memorial to the Dam's Builders |
 |
| In the forground you can see the spillway and just how much the reservoir has fallen |

 |
| One clock on each side, NV/AZ time differs |
 |
| Spillway- 700ft to the bottom |
 |
| Power-lines simply cover the hills here. |
 |
| This was build right after Pearl Harbor to protect the dam from attacks. |
 |
| This was the most I saw of the Colorado that day. |
 |

 |
| I went over this bridge every day for field camp |

 |
| Fabian and I, mapping as the slot canyon |
 |
| Artsy, there is a light at the end of the canyon! |

 |

 |

 |
| Dead tree, but beautiful |
 |
| Nature provided a seat for me! |
 |
| Lake Mead in the Distance, here we have just a small part of Map Area Two's 16 square miles. |
 |
| Bighorn Sheep! |
 |
| Lichen, looks like the Microwave Background Radiation of the Universe! |
 |
| View of the strip to the East, notice the escalators to get on the bridge to pass the street, pretty cool (and a little ridiculous) |

 |
| Trump Tower |
 |
| Circus, Circus, one of the old Casinos |
 |
| The Sahara, sadly it is closed now. |
 |
| Fashion show mall, I don't know what this is supposed to do, but it sure looks cool, reminiscent of a giant blimp. BTW's there is a live fashion show in the mall every week. |
 |
| Pirates Cove, come here at night to see a battle |
 |
| View from the Venetion, beautiful columns, pity they're fake |
 |
| The Venetion, shop in Venice, or ride the gondolas |
 |
| The Parisian Arc de Triumph |
 |
| The Famed Bellagio, stop outside to see the water show, every 15 minutes. |
 |
| The Tram next to city center |
 |

 |
| Lady Liberty |
