I've decided that one of the things I have to do in 2013 is visit the Grand Canyon. For all the exploring I've done in the southwest, I've not been to the Grand even one time. I've heard of some good places to go and camp on the rim but I don't hear a lot about backpacking aside from the rim to rim Bright Angel Trail. But as great as I'm sure that is, I don't really want to deal with those crowds. Does anyone have any recommendations on other routes or areas of the canyon that I should look into for a nice 3-5 day backpacking trip that will have a bit more solitude and still knock my socks off?
Oh, and when is the best time to go? Spring or Fall?
