01 Storm clouds over SR from BAP NR GRCA NP AZ (1024x768)

It’s been a little stormy looking over the canyon lately, but not much rain.

02 Aspen & Ponderosa Pine Forest Kaibab NF AZ (779x1024)

Yet we’re taking our chances and going camping in the Kaibab National Forest on our first multiple days off together since Mike started working several weeks ago.

03 View from Crazy Jug Point Kaibab NF AZ (1024x265)

View from Crazy Jug, one of those points is Parissawampitts

So many choices. I think I’ve whittled it down to Parissawampitts or Crazy Jug Points where we can park the truck camper almost on the North Rim of Grand Canyon. Then rest and enjoy the view or take a hike on the Rainbow Rim trail.

04 Saffron fire smoke above Lodge BAP NR GRCA NP AZ (763x1024)

Smoke from Saffron Fire above Grand Lodge

With the predicted light winds from the west we shouldn’t be affected by the smoke from the managed Saffron Fire further south near Swamp Point.

And if we don’t like it, we can move. More when we get back.
