"My vote is for the North Rim over the South Rim. It's not as crowded, not so touristy" (quote by luvnlife)
I lived and worked at the South Rim in the spring of 1983 -- sort of a "park ranger in training". I believe that the North Rim is higher in elevation, so there is a lot more snow (and thus the forests). Access to the North Rim is also more difficult because it's so much more remote. So it gets lots fewer visitors than the South Rim which can get SO crowded and crazy!!!
Does anybody know -- is the road to the North Rim still closed in the winter? It seems to me it used to be, although the last time I was there was in 1979.
