For sunset Shelley and I ended up at Mohave Point. We had hiked and driven along the south rim of the Grand Canyon most of the day looking for the best location at which to photograph the setting sun over a portion of the Grand Canyon.
Toward the end of the afternoon, Shelley and I found ourselves at the Hopi Point overlook. Here the South Rim trail runs very close to the parking lot. The trail was covered with packed snow and ice. This caused most people to stay parking lot to take in the view.
