Caption
With the first view of the Canyon from El Tovar one turns over in his mind all the superlatives of his vocabulary in a vain effort to find a descriptive word that fits the scene. The futility of this is evident in a little while, and the observer settles down upon the rim to try to from in simple words his idea of what the Canyon really is, and what it means, as it lies there in the sun, so big, so grand and so inspiring. -7509.
