Friday (9/29) KNAU in the White Mountains, KNAA 90.7, will reduce power temporarily. This is to protect tower workers as they work on an adjacent cellular antenna. Reception may be poor to non-existent in some areas including service over the repeater on 105.3. Online streaming service will not be affected. With afternoon winds forecast, the crew will likely get an early start and may not require a great deal of time for their work.


KNAU's main phone line is experiencing technical difficulties. Click here to contact members of our team directly.

North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park reopens with limited services

NPS

The North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park has reopened for day use and limited visitor services after the annual winter closure.

Park officials say as of Friday, June 2, 2023, the North Rim general store, gas station and post office are open, along with the Grand Canyon Conservancy’s Park Store in the Visitor Center. Park ranger programs are once again being offered daily and the backcountry information center is open.

Water conservation measures are in place due to a break in the main water pipeline. Overnight accommodations at Grand Canyon Lodge will not be available until the water pipeline has been repaired, which is expected by late July, 2023.

The North Rim Campground will reopen June 9 with potable drinking water available. And the North Kaibab Trail between the main trailhead and Manzanita Rest Area will reopen June 16.
