Next week I'm going to be hiking the south rim (Pohono and Panorama trails) and I'm wondering if anyone has any recent information on trail conditions - snow, crossings, etc.
Also, campsites - I'm leaving from Tunnel View and was thinking about stopping near one of the scenic points (Stanford, Crocker, Dewey) for the first night (I realize I would have to bring water). I plan to exit via the Mist trail, so I was thinking I would spend the 2nd night somewhere in the Illilouette basin (my other option would be LYV but I don't really want to go there). Just wondering if anyone has any specific recommendations for where to camp in these two areas.
Thanks!
