Can anyone provide any recent information on the weather conditions and trail conditions on the south rim of the Grand Canyon?
I'm mostly worried about snow and ice.
Thanks!

A friend of mine who is up there just said that it was in the teens this morning, but she said nothing about snow and ice...

Last year I was making small talk with the gal on the concierge desk in the El Tovar lobby and she said I could always call the desk for up to date weather

Windy yesterday - 40mph+ when I was there, but sunny and 60f. No snow or ice on BA, Hermit or SK. Which trail may make a difference.nonot wrote:Can anyone provide any recent information on the weather conditions and trail conditions on the south rim of the Grand Canyon?

If you have the time, and you've not already done so, you might give The Battleship a try - From the BA T/H to go out to the bow and then up on the tower and back up the BA T/H, give yourself about 5 hours - 6 if you want some time to reflect on top. If you have someone at the Rim, they could, at a predetermined time take your photo while standing on top.
