A wonderful 4 mile climb with easy switchbacks up to the rim, then very gentle climbing up to the "summit". Spectacular views the entire way. Some truck traffic up and down to a turn off at about mile 5 then very light traffic all the way to the west entrance. Lots of pull-out areas for viewing. Water and bathroom at the visitor's center at the top of the west entrance climb.

Tremendous ride, probably the best NPS ride I've done. Great views the whole way and an interesting road that is constantly turning around the cliffs going up and down.
