We wake up at 4:50am to go the viewpoint on Clear Creek Trail to watch the sunrise. Being really effective, we manage to be at the viewpoint at 5:50am. The timing was perfect and we could watch the sun slowly enlighting the canyon starting with red and changing into brighter, lighter colors.

On the last picture, you can also see the switchbacks of South Kaibab Trail between Tonto platform and Colorado river.
