Although less traveled, the Grand Canyon’s North Rim is equally as scenic, but limited in its operation due to seasonal weather conditions at its 8,800 foot elevation. Access to the rim is a bit more difficult, with some areas available only on foot or by four-wheel drive, but for those that have made the journey the experience is unforgettable.

You don't have to go to Phoenix to enjoy the best cuisine. There is plenty of luxury dining in Scottsdale that will tempt your taste buds. The Tapino Restaurant and Wine Bar's menu features appetizers from places as far flung as Wisconsin and Italy.
