Grand Canyon in early April, RV safe?
We want to camp there inthe 1st week of April. The weather is expected to be in the low 30s or high 20s at night. Do I need to worry about piping freezing issue?

We were there many many years ago in April. I just made sure the fresh water hose was disconnected, drained and put away each night to keep it from freezing.
All my tanks are heated so no worry about freezing.
The cold was very cold due to wind chill.
Unfortunately, I had the bright idea to go to Sunrise Point one morning to watch the sunrise over the canyon. We were joined by several other die hards. Even with layers of clothes, jackets and wrapped in sleeping bags...as soon as the sun was up we jumped in the truck to head back to the warm trailer. It was well worth putting up with the cold. The colors are fantastic.
A couple of years ago again in April we were there in a van (train trip & motel tour) in April. As we were about 50 miles from Williams, AZ. it began to snow. We made it to Williams, but over night a foot of snow fell. We took the train the next morning to the canyon. It was beautiful, strange to see no tracks in front of the train because they were covered in a foot of snow.
The canyon is spectacular when speckled with snow.
Hope you enjoy.
