Here's a quick look at the Deserty View Watchtower area of Grand Canyon National Park. By the time we got to this more remote area of the South Rim, we had already spent the day at the more populated areas of the park, and we were tired. We didn't climb to the top of the watchtower and only spent a short amout of time here.

I am so stoked that we finally made it to the Grand Canyon on our Full Time RV adventure across America. This is definitely on my top 3 places in the 48 states I wanted to see! But..... We might have forgotten that the grand canyon is way up at 7,000 ft elevation and had an RV fail with our water hose and filter!

Top 9 Grand Canyon Viewpoints
The Grand Canyon is one of the worlds greatest wonders. Everyone should at some point during their life visit and see the breathtaking views. Here are a few of the best viewpoints.
Hermits Rest Transfer
Powell Point
Hopi Point
Pipe Creek Vista
Duck On A Rock
Grandview point
Lipan Point
Desert View Watchtower
Mather Point
The best way to view all of the Grand Canyon (South Rim) view points is to split it up into 2 days.
On one day you can drive your car in the park on the east side of the Grand Canyon down Desert View Drive. There are 6 developed canyon viewpoints, 4 picnic areas and 5 unmarked pullouts. Every single stop is amazing and offers something different.
On the other day you will need to take the free bus service. From the Grand Canyon Visitor Center you will take the Blue Bus to the Hermits Rest Route Transfer. From there you take the Red Bus which stops at 9 incredible viewpoints. During the day the bus comes every 10-15 minutes. Feel free to take your time at each viewpoint and really enjoy each incredible view. If you don't want to wait for the bus at each stop, there is the rim trail path you can walk that will take you to each of the Grand Canyon viewpoints.
If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment and I will try to answer it the best I can.
