Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs has toured the destruction left by a wildfire along the Grand Canyon’s North Rim. Hobbs surveyed what she called devastating damage Saturday.

PHOENIX — The historic Grand Canyon Lodge on the North Rim was consumed by a wildfire , Grand Canyon National Park officials said on July 13, as the roaring blazes have prompted evacuations and air quality concerns in the area.

The Grand Canyon Lodge was the park's one and only hotel, according the National Park Service, with the next nearest lodgings roughly 18 miles away.
