Jacob Lake


You can hardly see the water in this pond called Jacob Lake. Named after early Mormon explorer Jacob Hamblin, this tiny spot on the Kaibab Plateau is world famous. There is a local ongoing joke about fishermen driving into the Jacob Lake resort and asking directions to the lake to go fishing. The Lake is located just off Highway 67, the only paved route to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. It is also located only a short distance from the small hamlet of Jacob Lake. A wider angle view of this small pond would show cabins and development only a short distance away.
