As the Dragon Bravo Fire continues to burn on the North Rim, Grand Canyon Conservancy is responding to community needs and working to understand what long term restoration will entail. GCC will be closed on Friday, August 1 to give all staff a collective day of rest and reflection. As we care for the canyon, we must also take care of ourselves and each other. This pause across all offices, retail locations, the distribution center, and programs is a moment to heal, recharge, and reconnect. We are proud to prioritize our employees in this moment.

Store Details

Located in Verkamp's Visitor Center, this GCC Store features a wide variety of books, apparel, gifts, and more related to the canyon.

From the early 1900s to the early 2000s, the Verkamp family was a fixture of Grand Canyon National Park, and their store was frequented by canyon visitors throughout the years. The store was one of the first built on the canyon rim and the last family-run business in the park.
