The busiest day of the trip. Away at eight in the morning, four and a half hours to the rim, five or six hours there, then four more hours on to Las Vegas. The Vermilion Cliffs arrive without warning over the crest of a hill, and the original account rates that drive above a helicopter flight over the canyon itself.
