   EDITOR REVIEW:

SOUTH RIM.   From this observation point, visitors can take in the depths of the Canyon, including Phantom Ranch and the Colorado River. The North Kaibab and Bright Angel Trails are visible as well, and sunsets are a particular visual treat as colors shift and transform. The observation station features a museum with exhibits about the geology of the Canyon and the local fossil record. Plus, expansive windows offer views from inside, while a bookstore sells park-related items and rangers are available to field questions and lead guided walks.
