So here is the thing about Grand Canyon Rim to River...
We went North Kaibab to inner canyon camp with a next-day climb out starting at 6:25 AM. Wind on exposed ridges eased after sunrise and made pacing simple. Stone steps were dry by mid-morning but still rough on knees.
Ratings: 5 overall, 4 difficulty, 5 scenery.
Already planning the next one.
