Grand Canyon North RIm

Although  the north rim of the  Grand Canyon is just 10 Miles  from the  south rim if a bird flies ,  it is more than 200 miles by road, and becomes  a long drive from teh population centers like Phoenix or Las Vegas. I have been to the south rim twice. In my opinion,  north rim is far superior place to visit. South Rim is more  like a human zoo, over crowded and commercialized.  North Rim has much more Alpine and wilderness feel.  We were very lucky enough to get the accommodation at the Grand Canyon lodge at the last days.

Cape Royal is tehmost spectacular setting on the North rim.  @3 miles of teh drive on the rim with view point slike Walhalla overlook,  Angel's Window overlook are great.
