[Kevin Erion]

We are planning a trip to the North Rim side of the Grand Canyon and would like to find a RV Park kinda close and nice, any suggestions or ideas welcome.
Thanks,
Kevin

Kevi: It seems I remember a RV parking area at the village upon entering the park. Check with Kaibab Forest Service for more info. There is a free one @ Canyon De Chelly we stayed at and it's a nice stop. I guess you know there is lots of snow there this time of year. That whole Canyon Lands area is a great experiance.

Thanks,

Kevin,

I've never tried, but I did run across this info:

and

This looks like a really nice place, but I'm thinking it's south rim?

Hey Kevin,

Fall of 2005 Alan and Diane Neff and Chris and I stayed at Jacobs Lake Campground (A forest service campground) and drove into the North Rim. It's a 44 mile drive into the lodge/north rim.
We also found out after driving the car thru the North Rim's lodge area campground, you could almost squeak a 45'er in certain spots. However, you would have to back out the way you came in since there is a curve a 45'er wouldn't make. A bit of a hike, Jacobs Lake turned out to be our best bet for the 4 day stay.

Hi Kevin. Fill up on Water, they do not have much water close to the rim. Gary

Kevin,

We stay at Virgin River Resort in Virgin, Utah. Excellent place, great people, and can head out the back dirt roads and make it all the way to Touweep via dirt bikes, etc without ever having to drive on main street. It is a fantastic ride but need spare gas containers unless you are on a BWM GS style bike.

It's not right on the rim but the park is fantastic!

If this works let me know and I will give you all the details on the trails!

Are you winning?

Tom,
Thanks for asking, first AM practice and we are p3. New bike so it will take a little time to sort out. We have another practice in about 1/2 hr and I will let you know how that plays out. I will post at the end of the day our results, qualifying today and tomorrow and racing tomorrow and Saturday. The big race is Saturday, Daytona 200 on Speed at 2:00PM for those that care to watch.
Kevin
