Arizona Strip Aka North rim of the grand canyon is Bad Ass! You really do not have to pay A guide to do this. In today's world all you have to do is plan your route by Google earth and over lay that map on to a GPS. If you are A out doors man and your equipment is well prepped this is very easy to do I have done it twice with my old man we covered about 600 miles in 6 days along the trails that go for miles and sights that are unreal. Get A group of people that love an Adventure and go for it. if you have done Baja then this is A walk in the park! If you need a starting point PM me and I can help you out, part of the fun is planning and doing some thing like this on your own.
