“Save yourself the trouble and go to Bryce Canyon in Utah instead.”
And take the horseback ride to see the wonders up close and/or from a different angle!
I do like the Grand Canyon too, and the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. And Arches, etc. etc.
Got to the south rim a couple of days after Christmas on year. White-out at 4:30 in the afternoon. Was at the rim the next morning as the storm cleared gradually and got the most fantastic light/shadow, cloud/mist and unique vistas that can be imagined. Went up and down the south rim overlooks and had a great day and a half visits with the grand-daughter in tow.
Did the north rim a couple of years ago and want to get one of those little cabins for a few nights and do star watching on a new moon night. Magical but very high altitude takes some adjustment.
