The nearly century-old Grand Canyon Lodge in far northern Arizona was a refuge for ambitious hikers and adventurous tourists eager to bask in the magnificent views of one of the most remote and renowned landscapes in the world.

PHOENIX — The historic Grand Canyon Lodge on the North Rim was consumed by a wildfire , Grand Canyon National Park officials said on July 13, as the roaring blazes have prompted evacuations and air quality concerns in the area.

Built nearly 100 years ago, the remote lodge offered majestic views of one of our finest national parks before it burned in the Dragon Bravo Fire.
