Fweethawt Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 II would love to witness this. http://www.smithsonianmag.com/travel/sea-fog-completely-filled-grand-canyon-180953609/ For anyone that has never seen the Canyon in person, pictures don't even come close to actually experiencing being there. I've been there once. Never saw anything so awe inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophrosyne Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 That looks so amazing, too bad it's a rare occurrence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fweethawt Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 That looks so amazing, too bad it's a rare occurrence.That's the weird thing about this. Its a very rare occurrence -- and yet, it happened previously just a year ago. Climate change??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duderonomy Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 It's a hole in the ground, with the effects of an inversion of colder and hotter temperatures in play. What's the big deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fweethawt Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Have you ever seen the grand canyon up close in real life, Dude? I have. It was the first time in my life that I experienced something in nature that actually made me feel true awe and a state of near breathlessness. Its a hole in the ground, sure. But it truly is an awesome site. No words or picture can do it justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duderonomy Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Well, Fwee, since I haven't seen it and you have, I'll defer to you're point of view. Maybe it's like I feel when I look up on a clear night at all of the stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenstar Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 It's a very cool phenomenon. Seen it a few times in the Canadian Rockies, where you get deep narrow valleys between the mountains… if you are up high enough the clouds are sometimes below you and then the temp changes and they rush upwards, engulfing you… amazing.

Fweethawt Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Dude, It is so freakin big, when I was 30 feet away from the edge, I felt like I was going to fall in. That's the best I can describe it. I never felt that looking up at the stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a video on YouTube showing how the top of the cloud-line was swaying and rushing up and down around the edges of the canyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the video showing how the clouds move like water in there. It would be sweet to be down in there right at the edge while its moving.
