I know with my first wife pushing wasn't the way especially when she was pregnant. M second time around I did much better. She doesn't camp or go on runs but I was lucky to get out of my first marriage with my FJ40. The new better half (over thirty years) has hated my FJ40 from day one. But I still have it as well as a few more.
If you can stay off the skinny pedal
If I don't keep my foot of the skinny pedal I won't go anywhere in my FJ62.
Well, I have to work Monday after all. Next time.

Curious myself. Think the elevation is key. ZIP code for the north rim is 86052. Weather Channel seems to match the temps posted by Eric.

I’m pulling mine from Jacob Lake, AZ. The trip we made a few years ago seemed to mirror the reports at Jacob Lake. No matter how the weather is, it will be dirt and we all need dirt as Abigail has said.

Ah, I see the folly now, elevations are lower than Jacob Lake by 100 to 1500 ft. Fredonia, Az is about 3000’ lower than Jacob Lake and 10-12 degrees warmer on both ends.
I should have tried matching the elevations.

anything other than Phoenix is going to be welcome!
I expect good pictures from this trip for us expatriates!

Glad to meet you!
No doubt, the dry adiabatic lapse rate in play for temperatures around them parts. Looks like a great run.

Why, has it been cold in the Phoenix area? Guess I should be glad it hasn't gotten below the fifties here yet.
I was just saying best forcast would be by matching elevation to a town or GC park that are in the area. Haven't been looking for a forcast since temperatures won't be that much different for me.
The radio arrived yesterday, do I need to down load anything to just listen as I do not have a Ham license? Turn on and set the channel?

I owe my soul to the TRD store.

Just set frequency to 146.460 Mhz and listen. If it is a Baofeng hold the # key for a few seconds after you set the frequency to lock the settings.
I'll be aiming to hit the road around that time as well, but don't feel like you need to wait up for me, I'll find ya' somewhere.

Prolly leaving around 330. Saddletramp can ring you and see if we can meet on the way out?
Sounds like a fantastic time. I will have to catch the next one!
