Hi, Im going from Sonoma,AZ to Grand canyon...do I hit the hoover dam first then Grand Canyon and what rim should I go to to stay there overnight prior to heading to Zion?
A:
Depending on whether you're going to the south rim or west rim it's about an hour away. I definitely suggest doing the west rim over the South rim
