Grand Canyon National Park P.O. Box 129 Grand Canyon, AZ 86023 (928) 638-7888
HIGHLIGHTS: The Grand Canyon is a World Heritage Site and is one of the most spectacular examples of erosion anywhere in the world. The views from the rim of the canyon are nothing short of spectacular, and people come from all over to see them.
This is a short and easy day hike in the park that follows a dirt road to Shoshone Point which has 180 degree views of the Grand Canyon. If you look closely in the upper right corner of this picture, you might also catch a glimpse of the Colorado River in distance. There is a picnic area and restroom (pit toilet) at the end of the road, but the area is occasionally used for weddings and other random events and may be closed to the public. So you might want to check with the park service before you head to the trailhead.
