Phantom Ranch is a resort village within (and at the bottom of) Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona. The ranch's elevation is 2,400 feet; that is about 4,600 feet lower than the South Rim and about 5,800 feet lower than the North Rim. The average daily high and low temperatures in Fahrenheit are 106/78 during July, and 56/36 in January. The ranch continues to be one of the most popular destinations in the national park system; its accommodations are often sold out for two years in advance. To hikers and rafters, it is an oasis of cool water, greenery, and comfort. Phantom Ranch also holds the distinction of being the one of the only two places left in America whose mail is still delivered by mule, the other being Havasu Falls, also located on the Colorado River in Arizona
