When I arrived at Grand Canyon last Friday I was greeted by a few fluffy clouds over the canyon.
By Saturday clouds were slowly filling the canyon. El Tovar appears to be floating on an island.
Then Sunday, there was no view, only thick sky.

That last shot looks all too familiar!
Amazing! I didn't know you would get for like that there. Great photos!
Even your cloudscape is spectacular.
Actually that last picture could have been taken from my window-grey skies, will they ever go away?
Forecast is rain, rain and more rain, but what's the betting we will have drought warnings in July.
I've never seen a shot of the Grand Canyon shrouded in fog before—very interesting!
WOW! Look at that! I have never seen the canyon filled with clouds before! That's amazing!
You are so lucky to be there and work there and see this miracle daily.
I saw your post yesterday. Made me sick.
I love birds and am especially upset with the decline of so many birds and these beautiful birds are special or should be.
I have never been to the canyon. It must be grand. It was selected by a tribe of Native Americans as home and I suspect they still live there.
Amazing how quickly the weather can change. The people in Cape Town have much of that. One moment a clear mountain and the next minute the table cloth comes over.
Whoa, now that last one is probably a view rarely seen in the Grand Canyon!
Amazing how a place can be so altered by the weather, both short term as well as over time!
Oh, the floating island one is gorgeous! So atmospheric!
I think that last shot looks very familiar to a lot of us! Love the floating island!! Hope you have a great weekend, Gaelyn!

breath-taking photos!
great shots!
What a gorgeous transition from start to finish. Thanks for sharing the [snowless]beauty. Cheers from Minnesota.
You live in the West – wait five minutes and the weather will change. Great group of pictures.
Fascinating. That's probably rather eerie – a fog-filled canyon. Terrific post, Gaelyn.
Great shot.

Cool shots of the Grand Canyon and the neat looking fog.
It was a day just like the last picture when "The People" emerged from the canyon to start a new life for themselves and the generations that followed.
That's a great series of photos. Great variety in just a couple of days!
How changeable! I hope you didn't have to drive in the bad weather.
Grand Canyon is an amazing place. You captured some very interesting shots from there.
Wow kinda scary, knowing me I'd fall off an edge!
Wow how breathtaking!
I've been here once.
Have great day and weekend.

The first pic is awesome, the 2nd one mysterious and the last is scary since there is no view!
Thanks for sharing yr wonderful pics as always, have a lovely weekend, Ev
Zero visibility? Isn't that scary? I have never seen that thick of a cloud formation!
The first shot is just gorgeous! Enjoy your ranger days at the Grand Canyon.
Take care!
Nature gave you a little of everything.
That middle shot is dramatic!
Love that second shot Gaelyn.
Just three more working days for me. LOL!!
The first photo is how I always think of the Grand Canyon, undoubtedly because that's the way I first viewed it! Will see it again, by cracky.
Wonder if it's eerie not to be able to see the mountains…and watching your step extra carefully!!
Gorgeous series!
Stunning "mistical" shots, Gaelyn!
The canyon looks different every day. I still can't see it enough, and can't wait to get back there.
Wow … now you see it, now you don't!
So, so different from summer.
