Viewing platform that gives a beautiful view the Glen Canyon Dam, the Colorado River and the sandstone formations that are common in the area. There is also a musuem that gives more information on the area and the building of the dam.

Easy accessible and free of charge beautiful overview. It has a small parking area, very short walking distance to some of the hotels.

The views of the Colorado river and the Dam are beautiful. Wonderful place to enjoy in peace both the sunrise and the sunset. Generally not crowded, but it is gaining popularity.
