Virtual Desert View Flyover (The tour seen above)

In part three of the Grand Canyon South Rim Tour we find ourselves flying north just east of the eastern rim

alongside Hwy 64 towards Desert View. As we fly over the rim we get a good view of Desert View off our right

wing. We also get a broad view of the Grand Canyon off our left wing with distance views of Tusayan and Grand

Canyon Village. Popular Grand Canyon River rapids are also seen a mile below such as Sockdolager Rapids,

Hance Rapids, Nevill's Rapid, Tanner Canyon Rapids and Lava Canyon Rapids which range from level 2 to 9 in

difficulty rating.
