Going west along the Canyon Rim from the Visitor Center require taking a Park shuttle bus. The bus operates during daylight hours and they run every 10-15 minutes and stop at all the Vista Points. This allows you to visit the various points at you leisure. Normal round trip is 2-4 hours and the furthest stop is at Hermit's Rest. There is a small gift store and small deli, restrooms etc. at this stop.

Great set, Jim! The snow enhances the shots, but I know that it made your part difficult.

A beautiful set, Jim! Last time I was there with snow on the ground we broke icecicles off the canyon wall on the trail on the way down. Warm and sunny at the bottom!
