 GPS Address to the Canyon 
Destination Expert   What's this?
for Wichita

Will be using our new, trusty GPS system this trip (and will NEVER travel without one again after two trips with borrowed ones last year).

But I'm not sure what to input as the address. We will be staying at the Thunderbird Lodge.

Perhapse put an address for Tusayan which is nearby the GC S rim entrance. Also since you have a GPS system I use mine to go Geocaching. www.geocaching.com

Its a lot of fun and there are several in the area that are easier than others. Perhapse call the lodge they might know what you could enter.

Google Earth is terrific for picking coordinates and also addresses, at least street names

http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html

If I've got the details right from maps etc, Thunderbird is in the middle of the row of lodgings, so its coordinates would be

N 36.0568

W 112.1393

corresponding to

N 36° 3.41'

W 112° 8.36'

which you could enter as a waypoint.

HI,

Do you do any geocaching? There are quite a few cache's around Grand Canyon. Just go into geocaching.com and put in the zip for GC (86023) and it brings them up. We just got into this so still learning the "ins and outs" of it!! Way to much fun though!
