By NPT Staff - June 3rd, 2016

With cooler temperatures and smaller crowds than the South Rim, the North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park may be a place where you can find lodging as the National Park Service celebrates its 100th birthday this summer. Whether your trip is planned for this summer or a bullet point on your bucket list, the Arizona park has released a video gives you a glimpse of what makes the place so special.

“I don’t think you have the full sense of the drama and the beauty and the scope of Grand Canyon until you make your way up to this high mountain plateau and see the rim from these forests,” park ranger Jessica Pope says in the video. “Grand Canyon is at her most majestic when you see it from the North Rim.”

Grand Canyon In Depth is a video series that explores the natural and human history of Grand Canyon National Park. The series is produced by the National Park Service in association with Bristlecone Media and the Grand Canyon Association, the official nonprofit partner of Grand Canyon National Park.
