From what I've seen, they don't know far ahead of time, exactly when the North Rim opens. It's basically when the snow melts and the road becomes passable. I sent a message to the park, asking for more details. They told me to check back in April, for better details, but that it's usually open by May 15th. I sent another message asking further questions, and the response was a terse, "The gates to the North Rim will be locked until May 15th."

Okay, That settles that.

I suppose they get lots of emails asking that question.

Their website is pretty detailed, with lots of planning info and FAQ, but they don't really say much about opening time.

Yeah. I just thought it was strange that the website, which talks all about it, didn't give an exact opening date, though they made it sound like May 15 was the latest, and the first e-mail answer I got seemed to agree, but the second e-mail was different. Almost like they were annoyed with me for writing back.

It would have been nice to see you guys. I was hoping to do some hiking with Dave too, but he's going to Peru in May.
