Grand Canyon – Yaki Point

Next stop in our journey on the West side of the South rim was Yaki Point. Once we arrived there we found out that you have to take a shuttle to reach the viewpoint. This meant driving to Mather Point (which view point turned out to be closed due to some works) and take the free shuttle from there. We decided to park and walk. What we didn't know is that we were looking at 20 good minutes of walk. Fair enough we had used the car the whole day so a bit of exercise would not kill us.
Another great place to stop and have a view on the Canyon (I know, there seem to be so many of them).

From there you can see the Kaibab Trail that goes down into the Canyon... yes that one we will not take :(
