Just got back from my R-R-R hike. I went in from the South Rim on 4/11, spent the night on the North Rim, and hiked back to the South Rim the next day. My route was South Kaibab/North Kaibab/North Kaibab/River Trail/Bright Angel. My last two hours were spent in a late season snowstorm. It was just enough snow to make everything extra beautiful. There was some snow on the North Kaibab above the Supai Tunnel, deep in places but spotty. The last half mile was solid snow but pretty well consolidated. My snowshoes made life easier but I could have survived without them.

I'll try to post a TR with some pics soon. If you want any recent beta please PM me. Let us know how your trip went!!!!
