Maricopa Point

Sublime view

Looking towards the North Rim and eastward up the Canyon, the splendor of the eroded buttes and peaks of the formations is almost too much for the human mind to grasp. The scalloped Redwall cliffs and sculpted ridge below the viewpoint attest to the creative force of erosion over millions of years.

The arid plateau and harsh winters stunt tree growth as well as fracture the rock cliffs. The grizzled pines and juniper trees on the rim could be hundreds of years old. Maricopa Point east to Trailview Overlook: .7 mile Maricopa Point west to Powell Point: .5 mile
