  • The golden light of sunset contrasts with a winter scene at Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona. <br />
<br />
With the South Rim at 7,000 feet above sea-level the temperatures can get quite cold. A colder than normal storm brought heavy snows to the canyon with snowfall reaching all the way to Phantom Ranch 5,000 feet below in the bottom of the canyon.<br />
<br />
This photo was captured at sunset on New Year’s Day, January 1, 2015.

  • This photograph of the Grand Canyon in the winter with a fresh blanket of snow was made in January of 2023. Much of northern Arizona was experiencing what would become a historic winter as record-breaking snowfalls fell across the area from Flagstaff to the North Rim. In this scene from Yavapai Point on the South Rim of the park, we can see Zoroaster Temple and Braham Temple cloaked by falling snow. A brief break in the storm has allowed the setting sun to briefly cast golden light upon the scene.

  • A rare weather phenomenon called a temperature inversion fills the Grand Canyon with clouds. This happens when cold air is trapped below the rim by hot air above. This particular event is very rare in that the entire canyon has been filled with fog, something which only happens once every 10 years.

  • In this winter scene from the Grand Canyon, the canyon walls frame Isis Temple in the distance. I had arrived at the trailhead over an hour before sunrise in near whiteout conditions. The wind was howling, and the snow was blowing sideways. I set off down the trail in the dark with my headlamp lighting the way. A short distance into the canyon, I came upon a large snowdrift that wasn't there the day before when I had scouted the scene. The snow drift was completely blocking the trail, so I felt it was unsafe to continue in the dark and decided to n to the trailhead. About 15 minutes before sunrise, I started back down the trail again, and this time I could safely make it through the snow drift and to the spot on the trail from which I could photograph the canyon. Mother nature wasn't exactly cooperating this morning, with the view into the canyon still obscured by clouds below the rim and falling snow. A little over an hour after sunrise, the storm began to clear, and I was able to photograph Isis Temple while there was still dreamy quality to the atmosphere.

  • Clouds from a winter storm had masked the view of the Grand Canyon for most of this morning. After waiting in the bitter cold for what seemed like an eternity, a break in the clouds allowed for a brief view of the canyon before the scene fogged over again.
