Part of the perennially popular Story Behind the Scenery National Park series, this book gives a great overview in words, map, and wonderful photos of the Grand Canyon's North Rim. A visit to the Grand Canyon is not complete without making the journey to the altogether different North Rim. The Kaibab Plateau's higher elevation (8000-9000 feet) and increased moisture has created a ecosystem one would more naturally expect to find in the mountains further north. Quiet, less crowded, spruce and fir forests full of the unique, white-tailed Kaibab squirrel, as well as the historic Grand Canyon Lodge make a visit here well worth the extra time required to discover it.48 pages; softcover; 9" x 12";
