The Grand Canyon is a world known tourist attraction that offers breathtaking views all year round. Sometimes when weather conditions permit, a dense fog fills the entire canyon offering tourists some incredible views.
The event usually happens once or twice a year and it's triggered by a temperature inversion that pushes a small amount of fog into the canyon. The inversion is caused by warm air that traps cool air below it, creating a river of fog.
Last Friday, November 29 under the ideal weather conditions the entire Grand Canyon was filled with a dense fog. This event is unique as it happens once every decade, offering tourists the chance to see the Grand Canyon in a new and amazing light.
The Grand Canyon National Park Facebook page shared with the rest of the community a series of breathtaking photos of this rare event. Check out the amazing picture gallery bellow to see the entire Grand Canyon flooded with fog.
