North Rim Grand Canyon Ranger Programs

Book: Favorites hike in and around Zion National Park - including Grand CanyonThe canyon lands of Northern Arizona's Grand Canyon are nature's most well known and timeless creation. Human life is too short to notice the dramatic changes that have formed the canyon over the millions of years it has taken to carve the gorges, buttes and crevices of the Grand Canyon. The imposing massiveness of what is called "one of the seven wonders of the world," lures tourists to its rim by the thousands. Different from Zion National Park where you walk on the canyon floor and look up to see magnificent monoliths, at the Grand Canyon we stand above the rim and peer down into the enormous gap in the earth. The North Rim of the Grand Canyon sits at over 8000 feet, and even though the North Rim shuts down most winters hikers, snowshoers and cross country skiers still access this section of the park. The North Rim Visitor Center and other services at the North Rim usually shut down around mid-October and open up again mid-May. Ranger programs are posted at the visitor center during when the building is open for operation. This is also the place to go for the Jr. Ranger program.
