I have mixed feelings about LV too.
Thanks for the tip with the lodges on the South Rim. Is the South Rim largely weather dependent?
I will come prepared to weather a storm with food, sleeping bags and water. I will also check in with friends on a regular basis.
Not well equipped on the GPS side - may be a good investment for this trip.

For next year.... the North Rim is great. Not sure what you might be driving but Hwy 89A that leaves there headed east is a great drivers road through the Kaibab Nat Forest. Also go to Zion Park while in the area.
Chaco is great but it is on the Navajo Rez so plan for very few amenities..
If going to Santa Fe after that if time permits you could go in the back way thru Los Alamos and on the way you will go by the Valles Caldera. Possibly slated to become the next US park if I understand correctly... either way great country but very remote back roads...
Enjoy
