crosvs,
It's not an impossible trip, but it's a long, haulazz trip, imo...

It's about 5+ hrs from LostWages to The Canyon, barring snow near
the canyon. South Rim is open in winter; seldom is North Rim this time
of year.

If you left Vegas by 1 ish, you might get there for a sunset and then
sunrise the next morning, before hauling fanny for SD.

But, it's 800+ miles back to Diego, prob. 12 1/2+ hrs even hauling azz.

The upside is the Canyon is "empty" this time of year compared to the summer.
The downside is you are looking at 18hrs of road time and
"20 mins of seeing" the Canyon.
