We did Upper Buck Trail just following the meadow valley about 4 miles in to the Cabin Complex, then we cut east closer to the rim, and from there, we just hiked up and down cutting through the forest following the ridge, all the way back to the main trail. This added some nice cardio and some shade. Tons of deer and elk scat, but nary a one to be seen. We caught some glimpses, but nothing picture worthy. No rain all day, until we got back in the car and had to drive the Rim Road in thick fog and rain and almost zero visibility. That was a little harrowing. But made it out safe and sound. Would definitely take the kids on the family friendly meadow walk. Only downside was the 3 hour drive to get up there. But when it's 110 in Phoenix, you gotta go what you gotta do.
