The Grand Canyon is CLOSED

I folloed the signs to the Grand Canyon. The road was blocked and there was a lady sitting in a car with an offical logo on the door.

"You must have taken a wrong turn," she said.

"Apparently I must have!"

"The Grand Canyon is closed for the season."

"Closed? Isn't it pretty big?"

"Well the North Rim is closed."

"Is there a SOUTH Rim?"

"Well I would go back to that gas station and get directions."

"Ok thanks."

Well fuck that. I drove through Glen Canyon which was plenty of geology for me. Looks close enough.
