View looking down the path of the South Kaibab Trail from near its trailhead on the South Rim. This view shows icy conditions of the trail in early March, 2006. Ledges of Kaibab Limestone crop out amongst the pinyon pine, Utah juniper, ponderosa pine, and gamble oak forest that dominates the South Rim of the Grand Canyon (USDA, [2010b,c,d,e]). |
