Campground at the bottom of the Grand Canyon? You'll probably have to settle for the top of the canyon, Roni. The roads leading into the area are going to be in the 5,000 to 7,000 foot range of elevation, depending on which way you come in. The Park entrance and the roads are all at the top of the canyon, with no way to drive down -- hiking or on mule back being the main ways available to get to the bottom. But your Dakota will likely handle that just fine.
