Of all the stunning visuals of Grand Canyon that you may have seen so far, rarely would you have seen fog as part of that landscape.

However, on November 29th, Erin Whittaker of National Park Service captured a stunning sight - the published panoramic image of Grand Canyon shows the landmark literally full of clouds.

The description of the image notes - A rare total inversion was seen today by visitors to Grand Canyon National Park. "Cloud inversions are formed through the interaction of warm and cold air masses. The grand canyon has been evolving for millions of years and in a sense it's still a work in progress."

At 277 miles in lengths, this vast landscape treats visitors to an incredibly dynamic setting. And on rare occasions, exhibits a rare phenomenon as this one.

Several other images and videos surfaced online of the beautiful setting.

The National Park Service further noted - Rangers wait for years to see it. Word spread like wildfire and most ran to the rim to photograph it. What a fantastic treat for all!
