Hi Surridge. :welcome:

It's a difficult question to answer without knowing more about you and what you typically hike.

HAZ is a great resource though.
Start with this page: http://hikearizona.com/traildex.php?SHO ... PN=1&ID=34
Adjust the criteria to meet your preferences and the results will change.

After you find some options you might enjoy, you'll need to contact the Backcountry Office to obtain a permit. Spring can be a very difficult time to obtain a permit at the Grand Canyon so it will be good to have a couple of different options in mind.
I'm not sure what my spirit animal is, but I'm confident it has rabies.
