Summary
[edit]DescriptionGrand Canyon National Park Hermit Rd Maricopa Point 080805 (6148693531).jpg |
(2742 x 1154) View northwest from Maricopa Point along Hermit Road (West Rim Drive) on the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park. This overlook is 0.7 miles (1.1 km) beyond First Trail View. In addition to stunning vistas, Maricopa Point looks out over the former Orphan Lode Mine, claimed in 1891 by miner Dan Hogan. The mine first produced copper, then, during the 1950's and 1960's, uranium ore. Mining operations ended in 1967. Grand Canyon National Park acquired the property and major environmental restoration of the site began in 2008. NPS Photo by Michael Quinn. Hermit Road is a scenic route along the west end of Grand Canyon Village on the South Rim which follows the rim for 7 miles (11 km) out to Hermits Rest. This extremely popular route is accessed by free park shuttle bus, foot, bicycle, or commercial bus tour most of the year, with private vehicles allowed only during winter months. Along the rim are nine designated viewpoints where the free Hermits Rest Route shuttle bus stops. The Rim Trail also follows the rim of the canyon for 7.8 miles (12.6 km) along Hermit Road and offers the opportunity for short or long walks between viewpoints on both paved and dirt trails.
