We camped in the Grand Canyon North Slim on June 7th and 8th.
Japanese tourists don't often visit the Grand Canyon's North Rim, but the distance and time from Las Vegas is the same as going to the South Rim, which is visited by many.
However, due to the influence of snowfall in winter, the tourist season is short, and it is usually from May to October.
There are three basic observatories, Bright Angel Point, Cape Royale and Point Imperial.
Bright Angel Point is accessible from North Rim's only accommodation, the Grand Canyon Lodge. It is also directly opposite Mather Point on the South Rim. The trail from the lodge to the observatory protrudes into the valley like a horse's back, there are no fences, and there are several places along the way where you can monopolize the scenery.
Cape Royal is located on the opposite bank of the Desert View Point in the South Rim, and is famous for its views of the Grand Canyon through a large rock hole called the "Angels Window".
Point Imperial is the highest observatory in the Grand Canyon, reaching 2,650 meters above sea level, and is a spectacular point overlooking the eastern view of the Grand Canyon.
Surrounded by a lot of trees because the altitude is more than 400m higher than the South Rim on average, you can enjoy the scenery with lots of greenery as if you were on the Canadian plateau, and you can see the autumn leaves in autumn.
In addition, there are few people, so you can enjoy sightseeing slowly.

I will also post a few photos.

A full-day tour of the Grand Canyon was held on May 29th and 30th.
The guests on the 29th were a family of four stationed in New York, a couple stationed in Chicago, and a total of eight men and women studying abroad in Los Angeles.
The guests on the 30th were a family of three stationed in New York and a couple studying abroad in San Diego, for a total of five people.
Everyone came to the Grand Canyon for a trip during the holidays of Memorial Day.
We were able to guide the tour as planned without the expected heavy congestion during the consecutive holidays.
It may be that the soaring price of gasoline makes it difficult to go out in your own car.
On May 28th and 29th, we held a one-night, two-day Grand Circle tour.
There were a total of four guests, a couple residing in Houston and a couple residing in Michigan.
We had you participate in the trip of the Grand Circle using the consecutive holidays of Memorial Day in the United States.
Although there are differences depending on the region, most areas in the United States will be in full swing from Memorial Day to summer vacation. For people living in the United States, this summer vacation is likely to continue to focus on travel within the United States.
After all, summer is the season for national parks, so it seems that the tourist spots in the Grand Circle will be crowded for a while.
A two-day, one-night Grand Circle tour was held on May 24th and 25th.
The customers were two men and women who came to travel from Japan.
The number of customers traveling from Japan is increasing little by little, but it is often the case that mixed-ride tours are still reserved like this time.
It's a tough situation for us to organize the tour, but I think we're very lucky for the customers who participate in the tour.
Please come to the Grand Canyon for sightseeing, aiming for a high charter rate before the overseas travel is revived in earnest and you are busy.
