North Rim Visitor Center, Grand Canyon National Park

The employees and park rangers are very friendly at the visitor center. They offer a lot of information and give you directions to get some amazing views, as well as provide information you might need regarding the surrounding area. Did you know at the North Rim you can rent a cabin with that spectacular view?? It was news to me! I can't adequately describe or do justice to God's work, as seen in the Grand Canyon. It's breathtaking to say the least. However, in my opinion, the south rim does offer a broader and more open views. To me the North Rim felt cut off from the majority of the canyon and was only a sliver of the true view. But I can say it was great to see the Grand Canyon from the north rim, and the drive into the park was amazing.

I don't know what else to say except I have been to the south rim twice and the north rim views are spectacular. It feels like you are in the canyon as a lot of the trails jet out further than the South side. It is true that it takes a long time to travel to the lodge and then a long time to travel the second road down to Cape Royal but again it is amazing views. I wish we would have gotten there a little earlier so that there would have been less shadows at Cape Royal but it was amazing. If given the opportunity I would definitely choose to go back to the north rim versus the South room.
