Grand Canyon Day 3

We didn't go far yesterday,  just 29 miles down the road to Desert View campground.  We are still in the National Park.  At an overlook we watched rafters down on the Colorado river.  They were goin thru one of the worst rapids, Hansen rapids. It had to be over a 1.5 miles away.  Took pics with telephoto lens,  didn't turn out too bad.  Went thru an old indian tower on the edge of the canyon, and then picked out a campsite, put out our chairs and read till dark.  Beautiful campgrounds, walking distance to the canyon rim.
