Roosevelt Point Overlook

This overlook is not shown on many maps because it's a recent addition to the North Rim points of interest. It was dedicated in 1990 to commemorate the 26th president who was instrumental in the creation of Grand Canyon National Park in 1919. It's located close to the road, about halfway between Bright Angel Point and Cape Royal. From the small parking area, a short trail leads downhill to several wooden benches at the viewpoint. The panorama is impressive enough though views are slightly restricted as the point does not project outwards very far.
