Leaving the Grand Canyon and into Tucson

We left the Grand Canyon early this morning and made are way down to Tucson.  Outside of Flagstaff the altitude was over 8000 feet and temperature was around 40.  Arriving in Tucson around lunch the altitude was 2000 feet and temperature over 100.  This was in about 200 miles.   Who knew there was a place in Arizona called Snow Bowl?

We drove to Saguaro National Park and saw the amazing saguaro cactuses.    There wasn't much of a crowd since it was the off season and it was over 100, but it was worth visiting.   We then drove to our hotel which is the amazing Westward Look Wyndham Grand Resort.   Going to the pool and looking at the mountains was a great end to the trip.

Here are a few pictures from today.
