While visiting our friends Forrest and Crystal in Arizona, we took a day trip to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. While there, we took a great tour of the Kolb Studio, a five-story house built into the rim of the canyon.

The Hand Rail is not something you want to put your whole weight against.


 


Ranger Jim Heywood was an outstanding and passionate guide to the Kolb Studio.

This Window over the South Rim is where the Kolb brothers shot pictures of tourists travelling down on mules.

Good Advice: "When Mules Pass Stand Quietly and Follow the Mule Guide's Instructions."
