After months of working in my studio, I'm back on the road again and shooting. Yahoo! Today I spent a good portion of my time at the Grand Canyon Sky Walk Glass Bridge. Another way to experience one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.
Operated by the Haulapai Nation (pronounced Wall-pie) where 160 miles of the Colorado River and Grand Canyon meanders through this breathtaking reservation. Haulapai's tribal members are employed at the site and are very welcoming to visitors. Along the canyon rim is a re-constructed Indian village demonstrating the traditional dwellings of the Haulapai Indians such as the Pinion pine brush covering their wickiups. There are American Indian representatives dressed in their traditional regalia ready to pose for pictures with the tourists. But the most impressive experience is walking the glass sky bridge. A structure that juts out from the canyon walls so that you feel as if you are walking on air a thousand feet above the canyon floor. It's a real mind rush and takes several minutes to trust the glass pathway that plunges out above the sandstone cliffs. The glass loop allows you to do something that your mind says "No way in hell".
