Greenland Lake, Grand Canyon National Park
Facts and practical information
Greenland Lake is a small, intermittent lake of northern Arizona, located at the north neck of the Walhalla Plateau, in the northeast Grand Canyon. The lake is located just west, of the south-running Cape Royal Road, which eventually turns south-southwesterly to Cape Royal, about 15 miles distant. Greenland Lake is also about 1 mile east of Greenland Spring, at the far north of Bright Angel Canyon. Greenland Lake is often intermittent, depending on winter snowfall; the lake is surrounded mostly by aspen, but also Ponderosa Pine, and Douglas Fir. It is a common water source for wildlife, especially deer. In historic times, cattle were grazed in the area, and a wood cabin, was used for storage of salt, for cattle. ()
