Grand Canyon flooding shuts down tourist lodging, threatens economy after last year’s fire

Deadly flooding at the Grand Canyon threatens to cause economic damage, with a washed-out pipeline severing the South Rim's water supply and shutting down lodging at the popular tourist vista for an indefinite period. The national park remains open but tourists who planned to stay overnight — many traveling long distances for reservations from a year or more ago — have had to scramble to find rooms elsewhere. The flooding that killed two people and left a third missing washed out an already decrepit pipeline spanning the canyon that supplies every shower, faucet and spigot at the South Rim. Now, hundreds of rooms are no longer available due to insufficient water, thwarting plans for thousands of tourists staying at the canyon or headed that way in the days ahead.
