North Rim Grand Canyon

We left on 9/11 and towed RP171 with our jeep 383 miles from 105 degree weather to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and found ourselves in snow,ice ,hail and rain! Stayed at the north rim campground, dry camping for 3 days and had no pod issues. Our water pump,furnace,refrigerator and water heater all lasted 3 days on our dual battery set-up. The only problem was rain and cold every day. We moved onto Zion National Park and spent 2 days with more rain and ice but had hook-ups outside the east gate. We ended the week in Lake Powell where we finally had some warm weather although it rained again. All in all another great trip in our pod, no problems, everything works as it should, and towed well except for hills which is to be expected using a v6 to tow. We have about 15 trips and close to 10,000 miles now on pod and 110,000 on jeep and still going strong! If I ever retire it will be more.

Cool stuff....I wish I could have been there!

will post some as soon as I sort out we took over 400+.

We did the North Rim a few years back. Did you know that less than 15% of visitors to the Grand Canyon see it from the north? It is spectacular and well worth the difficulty of getting there. We would love to see it again...camping there must have been incredible. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
