Offbeat Traveler: Grand Falls in Arizona
The Grand Canyon is Arizona's most apparent gem, but America's 48th state, which celebrates its centennial next year, has a lifetime's worth of natural wonders, including Grand Falls about 40 miles northeast of Flagstaff. The falls has a vertical relief of about 190 feet, making its drop greater than that of Niagara Falls.
Melted snow feeds the falls, so it's most active in the spring between March and June, depending on snowfall. Other times during the year, it runs at a trickle or is dry.
