Sunrise over the canyon from Cape Royal

Fig. 1Sunrise over the canyon from Cape Royal

Landform

A North Rim point over Wotan’s Throne and the eastern canyon — not the live South Rim Grand Canyon plate.

Field note

The cape is a finger of Kaibab limestone. Wotan’s Throne sits below. This is Cape Royal, not the South Rim overlooks and not Toroweap.
