Description
The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) conducted extensive development work at Grand Canyon Village, c 1933-37, including paths, bridges and stairways. As they rebuilt the Rim Trail and its rock wall, they also created the stone stairway down to the Kolb Studio at the west end of the trail.
The National Park Service’s CCC Walking Tour notes that: “Crew members from the Civilian Conservation Corps completed the stairs leading up from Kolb Studio in 1936.”
