My spouse and I just visited the North Rim and the Cape Royal road yesterday for the first time ever. While we had been to the South Rim several times before, the North Rim is much more fascinating because it is at a higher elevation, has far more trees, and has far more incised canyons.

Awesome! Happy to help and enjoy your time there! 👍

I did a North Rim trip this past week (along with Walnut Canyon National Monument, which was an unexpected treat), and having been to both rims now, I honestly prefer the North Rim. I actually think you get better colors and scenery on the north side, plus it's not nearly as crowded so the visitor experience was very pleasant. If you do another visit there, I recommend doing the Cliff Spring trail as well. It's not very far at a mile round trip, and because it's mostly within a wooded area, it wasn't as hot as the Uncle Jim or Cape Royal trails.

The smaller crowd size alone makes it top pick between the two for us. 👍 We'll have to check out that trail. Itching to go back - especially now with the unending heat down here. 😅

North rim was amazing - this video really helped. Went on Sept 30th for two nights and the Aspen were changing color on the way down 67, and particularly the first 5 miles of Cape Royal road. Had a nice picnic at Vista Encantada and the next day at Imperial.

@@CactusAtlas which rim of the Grand Canyon is best to see because people can’t have their cameras or phones out on the skywalk to prevent scratches in the glass.

@CactusAtlas

3 жыл бұрын

The Skywalk is actually pretty far from the South and North Rims and not the easiest to get to (Google maps shows it's a 4 hr drive from the South Rim). And yes, there's no filming there... a giant reason why we have no videos on the place and still haven't gone ourselves. 😥 As far as which rim is better... it's really subjective in a way. The South Rim is definitely has more tourists but more conveniences available (such as food and lodging) and is easier to get to. The North Rim has a far shorter season and can take a lot more time to reach (depending on where you're coming from) but the remoteness and lower crowd level certainly make for a more personal experience. We favor the North Rim just a bit more for that last reason but honestly they're both spectacular in their own way. 👍

The answer might be somewhat misleading unfortunately. The footage was filmed across about 3 hours, however, because of filming multiple takes, changing batteries and all the details that making videos entails, it may or may not take the same amount of time as someone just visiting. As for Glenn's trip to the North Rim, he camped there two nights. Hope this helps some! 😊

No doubt, the north rim has the most spectacular views of the canyon. After 2 trips to south rim, 2 to north rim, and one to Toroweap Point, I have no desire to revisit the south rim but would gladly return to either or both of the north rim locales.

Would you say you could do the whole tour within about 3 or 4 hours of you just wanted to take pictures and take in the view? And if you've already been to the South Rim would this be more of the same or is it totally different?

When did you record this video? Date and time. I was at the South Rim March 12-14, 2020, and it was significantly busier. I just cannot believe how 'empty' it is. I wish KZread would provide a "Recorded on (Date(s))" in the title area.

@CactusAtlas

3 жыл бұрын

Sep 25, 2019. It's funny that KZread doesn't display recording dates as there's an area for us to enter those dates. I'm not sure where that data goes honestly but it would save me from looking it up each time. After a while I can't even remember what year things were recorded. 😅 The North Rim gets 10% as many visitors as the South Rim so that probably leads to the lighter crowds. We also went about a week or so before the North Rim closed for the winter season.
