Local residents were devastated by losing a large canyon

Davi Krots watched with Milza when the first small smoke began to grow in the northern frame of the Great Canyon.

Soon, small plumes turned into a huge flame. Mr. Krots, Vice President of the Historical Society of the Great Canyon, went to bed, but the worries continued it. The historical house of the great canyon, with its panoramic view of one of the natural miracles of the world, was in the way of this flame.

On Sunday, the park officials confirmed that the favorite bed was destroyed in the bush fires.

“It broke my heart,” Mr. Krots said. “I was devastated.”

Hundreds of people share their sadness and place a tribute on social media in the stone lodge, who were sitting on 8,000 feet (2438 m), the only housing available in the northern Obrary of the National Park.

It was “stunning, balm for my tired soul,” one person writes. “Broken by the heart, hearing a historical lodge, a center for visitors and more.”

Many dozens of cabins in the lodge were also lost on the Fire Dragon Bravo, which burned more than 5,000 hectares.

According to historians and locals.

Carn Snicars for 24 years led excursions to Northern Rome. She said there are fewer tourists in the area than the southern rim because the view in the parts is slightly obscured by the “majestic” trees of Ponderosa.

But it was clear on the deck of the Lodge of the Great Canyon, she said.

“It’s very spiritually,” she said. “Sitting on the deck of this lodge, there is no dry eye, which I did when you turn away and should return to the minibus.”

The destruction of the lodge was like the “loss of an old friend”.

“I spilled a lot of tears yesterday,” said Ms Snickers.

The 61-year-old tour guide was there before the fire began when on July 4, the blows, which officials initially believed they would be connected.

But after the wind rose, the fire exploded, said Mr.

Firefighters were there to protect the bed, but when the cleansing installation burned down and released the toxic gas chlorine into the air, they had to evacuate.

Along with the house, most of the surrounding nature was also lost, including 400-year-old trees.

Mrs. Snickers believes that one large tree that will have tourists who will hug the tours is gone.

“Most of the beauty is gone,” said Mr. Krots. “It will take decades to grow back.”

It was the second time the bed burned.

The version, which opened in 1928, was developed by architect Gilbert Stanley Anderwood, was lost four years from the fire that started in the kitchen.

The construction of a new structure during the great depression took years, and perseverance, rethinking most of the original construction stone and lumber.

According to Mr. Krots, a smaller, temporary house, which housed construction workers, also burned down for unknown reasons.

Then the massive blizzard dropped into 12 feet of snow in the area of one winter, cutting off the workers and their families from food and the outside world for weeks, he said.

Finally, some workers went down to the trail in the snow shoes to call help by bringing snow plows to save the rest of the group, Mr. Krots said.

After the bed opened again, in 1938, he became a “summer vacation that people have just been revered over the years,” he said.

The guests of the lodge may encounter the buffalo’s time, following the high pine trees. Inside, they could take the view from the massive windows in the sun room, or from the table in the dining room, with a high ceiling, which was crossed by Ponderosa.

The park’s representatives are not yet saying whether they plan to restore a landmark, but many visitors and locals are hoping.

“We have to restore this place,” said Ms Snickers. “It will take time, but it should come back. It was part of the story.”
