    Tips

    According to some, this is one of the nicest views of the Black Canyon. From this vantage point, you can see down into The Narrows. The Narrows is a unique spot within the canyon because the canyon walls rise straight from the river up to the rims, which makes it more dramatic than wider parts of the canyon.
