The Watchtower South rim Grand Canyon 10.7.21

 Almost passed this one by. I said yes let's stop I want to see it. And OMG was I glad I did.

Desert View Watchtower, also known as the Indian Watchtower at Desert View, is a 70-foot (21 m)-high stone building located on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon within Grand Canyon National Park in ArizonaUnited States. The tower is located at Desert View, more than 20 miles (32 km) to the east of the main developed area at Grand Canyon Village, toward the east entrance to the park. The four-story structure, completed in 1932, was designed by American architect Mary Colter, an employee of the Fred Harvey Company who also created and designed many other buildings in the Grand Canyon vicinity including Hermit's Rest and the Lookout Studio


What a place to sit and contemplate the beautiful views of the Grand Canyon!

All along the Watchtower
