Some folks will setup at a very nice RV PARK in Williams AZ and ride the train up to the Grand Canyon...
Might check in with that?
We have good friends at FLAGSTAFF and the two or three trips we made was home based out of FLAG... There is just too many neat things to see and do around that whole area... Dinosaur tracks to the North, Painted Desert-Meteor Crator-Petrified Forest to the East, RED ROCK Canyons to the South, and Grand Canyon to the West. The Indian RUINS around the NE loop of Flagstaff is great too. You also get to drive on Route 66 as well and get your picture of the whole group standing next to the Route 66 highway sign (A must have photo)... If you want to spend alot money on things there is always SEDONA to take it all from you haha... Don't miss a night on the town in OLD PRESCOTT where two or three of the OLD WILD WEST days Saloons are still working - some still have the bullet holes in the walls... Another really exciting thing to do is RV Camp close to the I40 corridor and have to listen the EAST-WEST RAILROAD all night long. There seems to be a train with a loud whistle about every five minutes all night long hehe...
There is nothing more satisfying then to wake up in the mornings around Sedona and seeing the sun hit the RED ROCKS or looking out to the East from one of the High Indian Ruins in NE Flagstaff (WUPATKI) and watch the slow change over to the Purple and Pink hue from the Painted Desert as dusk approaches......
Way too much to see and do for a quick trip to the Area...
