“Happy New Year! As of 9:15 a.m. the morning of January 1, 2015, all South Rim roads are open – but the roads are really snow-packed and icy – 4 wheel drive or snow chains are recommended,” the Grand Canyon National Park service warned on its Flickr page. “Grand Canyon received some additional snow this morning and it is a winter wonderland out there.”
