We enjoy the Grand Canyon- North Rim. In particular we love the Rainbow Trail and it’s many gorgeous viewpoints and vistas. Sublime Point and Toroweap are other personal favorites, but are along long, rough dirt roads, and require reservations & permits in advance.

We enjoy the secluded dispersed camping, which unfortunately, has gotten harder to find with the Forest Service closing roads and commandeering many coveted spots and most lakes around AZ. The back roads of the North Rim, outside the National Park are exceptional areas that one can still dispersed camp.

We decided to explore the area behind DeMotte Campground in the Saddle Mountain Wilderness. The views along FR610 & 611 are vast and stunning, with views of the East Rim, Marble Viewpoint, and Saddle Mountain overlook. Definitely an area worth further exploration and future camping adventures.
