Best Overlooks on Hermit Road Shuttle Route | Grand Canyon National Park
Today's episode takes a look at several of the popular scenic overlooks on the Hermit Road Shuttle Route at Grand Canyon National Park.
If you are planning a trip to visit the Grand Canyon National Park and wondered which overlooks offer the best views of the canyon including either sunrises or sunsets... then this video is for you! We visit four stops on the Hermit Road Shuttle Route - Powell Point, Hopi Point, Mohave Point and Pima Point - and give a taste of what you can expect. We then end at the historic Hermit's Rest building where the trailhead to Hermit's Trail is located.
Shuttles on the Hermit Road Route make stops at all nine points going westbound and only three (Pima Point, Mohave Point and Powell Point) when returning east to the Village Route Transfer stop. Buses run approximately every 15 minutes during peak daytime hours.
In addition to the shuttles, one can bike as well as walk the 7 miles of Hermit Road.

Powell Memorial observation point Grand Canyon National Park
Amazing video Oct. 31 2015, from my foot at the edge of Powell Memorial observation pint, Grand Canyon National Park Arizona. Standing just to the right of the walkway. The Colorado River just in front at the start of the video is about 2.4 miles out and about 1.2 miles down, when the river can be seen again up and to the right, that's about 29 miles away. Just above that it looks like two pikes apart in the distance, that may be Marble Canyon about 59 miles away. This is a breath taking experience, about 4.5 hours from Las Vegas.

Desert View Watchtower, also known as the Indian Watchtower at Desert View, is a 70-foot (21 m)-high stone building located on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon within Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, United States. The tower is located at Desert View, more than 20 miles (32 km) to the east of the main developed area at Grand Canyon Village, toward the east entrance to the park. The four-story structure, completed in 1932, was designed by American architect Mary Colter, an employee of the Fred Harvey Company who also created and designed many other buildings in the Grand Canyon vicinity including Hermit's Rest and the Lookout Studio. The interior contains murals by Fred Kabotie.

GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK
A powerful and inspiring landscape, the Grand Canyon overwhelms our senses through its immense size. Unique combinations of geologic color and erosional forms decorate a canyon that is 277 river miles (446km) long, up to 18 miles (29km) wide, and a mile (1.6km) deep.
TRAVEL & TOURISM
Nearly five million people see the 1 mile deep (1.6 km) Grand Canyon each year. Most of them (90%) see it from the park's free shuttle buses or from their car at overlooks along the South Rim. The South Rim includes: historic Grand Canyon Village, Hermit Road, and Desert View Drive. The South Rim, the most accessible part of the park, is open all year, averaging 7000 feet/ 2134 m above sea level.
A much smaller number of people (10%) see the Canyon from the North Rim, which lies just 10 miles / 16 km across the canyon from the South Rim, (as the California condor flies) but is a 220 mile/ 354 km drive by car - all the way around the canyon. The North Rim, Averaging 8000 feet/ 2438 m above sea level, rises 1000 feet/ 305 m higher than the South Rim, and because of its remote location, is much less accessible than the South Rim.
The Inner Canyon includes everything below the rim and is seen mainly by hikers, mule riders, or river runners. There are many opportunities here for adventurous and hardy persons who want to backpack, ride a mule to Phantom Ranch, or take a river trip through the Canyon on the Colorado River. If you are hiking across the canyon, the South Kaibab Trail crosses the Colorado River on a narrow foot bridge 70 feet/ 21 m above the water. It is a 21 mile/ 34 km hike to go Rim To Rim, with a vertical descent - followed by a climb - of 1 mile/ 1.6 km. This is an overnight hiking trip for 95% of hikers.

Swiss Rocket flying over Grand Canyon
COURTESY: BREITLING VNR
Swiss adventurer Yves Rossy on Saturday completed a flight over the Grand Canyon, in the US state of Arizona, in his custom-built jet suit - his first such flight in the U.S. Rossy performed the stunt on Saturday with little fanfare, before a small group of team members, and his sponsor, Swiss watchmaker Breitling, announced the successful flight on Tuesday and released footage. He was airborne for about eight minutes, soaring 60 metres above the canyon rim on the Hualapai Reservation. A planned Friday flight before reporters was canceled after Rossy determined it would be too challenging without any practice runs. The US Federal Aviation Administration had given him the green light less than an hour before the scheduled stunt. Rossy's sponsor. Rossy flew up to 305 kilometers p/h before deploying his parachute and landing on the canyon floor.
