The local driver knows all the best places.
He takes his trailer up there and starts/finishes the route from his camp site sometimes.
He has a "domicile" route like mine (not based at a hub).
I've taken my motor home up there before when covering the route (get some strange looks when a UPS truck drives out of the forest in the morning).
The buffalo usually hang out near the park boundary.
They're not indigenous, a domestic herd (~25) got loose from a ranch down near House Rock a few decades back.
IIRC they now number over 300.
<edited to add>
There are varying accounts of how the North Rim buffalo herd reached its current status.
This is what I was told.
