My car&#8217;s thermometer showed 9\u00b0F, so I was glad to have bought an extra sleeping bag and some firewood the day before. In the morning, I went for a hike below the canyon rim. The diversity of the rock formations was impressive &#8211; behind every corner, a new spectacular view awaited me. In the afternoon, I drove to all the viewpoints along the rim and did another short hike. By 5pm it was almost dark, so I decided to use the evening to drive towards Grand Canyon. I found a nice spot for free camping in Kaibab National Forest, just a few miles from the park entrance.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a
