Maps for Lab 4 (Grand Canyon)
Here is the map for Lab 4 (Grand Canyon).
Please try clicking around and checking out various things.
Personally, I think that aerial views like this help
enormously when we get to the canyon.
Look to see where we will meet at 8:45 am on Sunday,
October 5, (same place
where we met last time).
You'll need to click on "Satellite" and zoom
in to
see exactly where to meet -- it is the parking lot between
Buildings 21B and 22.
Driving directions (for van drivers and co-pilots):
Left out of parking lot.
Right onto Ellery.
Left onto San Francisco.
Cross tracks.
Continue north to Forest (at the medical center).
Turn left on Forest.
Turn right on Fort Valley Road.
After about 30 miles, turn left for Red Mountain trailhead (signed).
Leaving Red Mountain, left onto Route 180 (Fort Valley Road).
Where 180 ends, turn right onto AZ 64.
General store is on the right in Tusayan.
In the park, turn right onto East Rim Drive.
Lunch spot is on the left, Grandview Point is on the left past the lunch spot.
