Lodge and [public] overlook on the North Rim

The Grand Canyon Lodge and [public] overlook on the North Rim.

The South Rim is about 1,000 feet [320m] lower and 10F hotter than the North Rim, and considerably busier, with 90% of the canyon's visitors. It's also open all year, but the North only from mid-May to mid-October.

The best months to visit the Grand Canyon are May and September, not July/August when most trippers go, it gets very hot and rains a lot.
