Photo by @Spono. Good morning from the #EastRim of the #GrandCanyon! We travelled out to the often overlooked #KaibabNationalForest just outside the entrance of the #NorthRim and drove out to the start of the #NankoweapTrail at #SaddleMountain and set up camp for the night. I was given quite a show of light on the canyon walls at 4:57 AM for #sunrise and could almost make out the snaking #ColoradoRiver in the distance. More photos and stories from our trip across the #AmericanSouthwest @Spono. Happy camping this weekend everyone! #wanderlust #americansouthwest #southwest #nationalparkstour #nationalparks #findyourpark #NPS100 #travel #adventure #roadtrip #outdoors #hiking #explore #hike #campvibes #camping #outside #frommytent #tentviews #dadshortshorts
