So much better from the easier to get to southern rim. Lush evergreen forests, cool temps, multiple locations for multiple views, miles apart, not crowded, etc. No cell service. High, 8800’ at one spot the highest for the Grand Canyon. For hours going south towards Flagstaff nutha. Lots of bugs, covered front of car and windshield. Beautiful barren landscape/views in that desert before Cameron. Temp ranges from the 50s to the 80s. Local times switching back and firth an hour when in Navajo lands around AZ and UT. Crazy.
