You'll have to check the weather closer to yoru trip. The canyon can
have beautiful weather and horrible weather that time of year.

Our trip across the USA is almost upon us. We are driving from NY to New
Orleans to Santa Fe (for Christmas) to San Francisco (for New Year ) over 3
weeks.
One of the questions that has arisen is whether we will be able to easily
visit the Grand Canyon - since our trip is in the depths of winter (13th
december to 5th january) . Does anyone know how cold / snowy the Grand
Canyon gets at the end of December? Will we be able to drive up to the edge
and look in? My companion is very worried about missing it as one of her
friends who visited in May said it was too snowy to get to the North Rim and
the South Rim was the coldest she could remember.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to a decent, reasonably priced place to
stay over Christmas at Santa Fe or New Year in San Fransisco?
