Dutton Point


Dutton Point


From Dutton Point on the North Rim a rugged and ever changing canyon unfolds. Water falling on the North Rim flows toward the canyon, eroding it farther back from the river. Rain or snowmelt seeps into cracks in rocks; over time, the cycle of freezing and thawing splits the rocks.
