You are probably wondering Rim to Rim, yes, N.O.M.H.A.D.S. have decided to break up the rims into four parts so that way we can get a feel of the trail and what to expect (Note: We did Part 1 on 12/21/2024, Part 2 on 4/5/2025, and Part 4: Rim to Rim October 2025). Now, some of the group members are going to be in the area on 8/14 and staying in these possible areas: Jacob Lake, AZ, Fredonia, AZ, or Kanab, UT to get acclimated with the elevation which is a little over an hour from the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and close to two hours from Kanarra Falls (i.e. Bonus Hike) which you are more than welcome to join us. The entrance fee into the North Rim is $35.00 (Note: Annual Pass which is $80.00 and you will be able to get into basically all national parks all year round.. It's worth it!). The address is North Rim Visitor Center (Note: We will provide more logistics as the event gets closer and monitor the weather as well). Of course, bring water, snacks, comfortable shoes/ hiking boots, and any other hiking necessities. This trail is not dog friendly.
