We'd say, 'Don't look down,' but that'd kind of be missing the point: Verticality is what put Toroweap Overlook on the map. Situated on the Grand Canyon's elevated North Rim, it offers an unmatched view down a sheer 3,000-foot drop straight to the Colorado riverbed.
It's just one of the payoffs for those who take the road less traveled to the remote North Rim—in a typical year, only about 10% of park visitors venture there. Since the 'other side' is about 1,000 feet higher on average than the more touristy South Rim, its climate is chillier and given to harsher weather, so it is usually open only from today, May 15, to October 15.
