Point Imperial

Point Imperial (Grand Canyon North Rim)


After being at both the south and north rim of the Grand Canyon, I admit I am very partial to the North Rim. First and foremost is the fact the North Rim is much less crowded. We could even arrange a mule ride down the canyon two months before our trip there. The opposite could not be said about the South Rim; you must book that a year in advance or longer. Also, some North Rim views, such as Point Imperial, are very close to you. We liked the hikes there with hardly seeing another person.

Remember that the only highway to the North Rim is open to the public between May 15 and October 15 because of snowfall.
