Grand Canyon, Sort Of

While driving from Oklahoma to Las Vegas, Sarah and I decided to stop by the Grand Canyon since neither of us had ever been there before.  The only problem we ran into was that the National Park was closed because of snow at five the night before we got there and they weren't sure it was going to open because snow was in the forecast.  Sarah and I didn't think it was worth $25 to bet against the weather, so we took some pictures from the scenic view points outside of the park:

(I realize that there is no snow in the pictures, but the entrance to the park is at a higher elevation and about 20 miles away.)
