Day 54 - North Rim
Wednesday September 30th 2009. Woke up at 6am to watch the sunrise over the canyon, escaped the horrible Grand Canyon Village and set off east, stopped at The Cameron Trading Post in a Navajo reservation, continued around the eastern end of Grand Canyon through a sweltering desert, drove west past the Vermillion Cliffs and enormous red plateaus, turned south to climb through montane forest and praries to reach the north rim of Grand Canyon at dusk, drove past many mule deer and a herd of buffalo, parked at 8000' / 2440m, were amazed to go from desert heat to sub-freezing temperatures in one afternoon.
