What do you want to know? I haven't been on that road in a long time, but I remember it as a lovely drive. Jacob Lake Inn site says it's 45 minute drive from there to the N Rim.

I'm not sure it's something you need to report, unless there's damage to your vehicle and you need it for your insurance. Early morning and evening would be the times to be most careful, keep your eyes open and watch your speed.

Since will be working whole summer North Rim Lodge. I want to drive out onto the park road and take pictures of sun sets and keep eye out for wildlife.

I'm sure you could find this information on a map, but if it's 43 miles from Jacob Lake to the Lodge, and 30 miles from the park entrance to Jacob Lake, (information I found elsewhere online) it leaves 13 miles from the park entrance to the Lodge.
