Located at Pima Point, along Hermit Road, this wayside overlooks Granite Rapids and describes a flash flood event on July 27, 1984, that moved a lot of rocks and debris down a side canyon and into the Colorado River, markedly increasing the size of the rapid.
This may not be the biggest view of the river itself, but it is one of the best views of major rapid within Grand Canyon from the canyon's rim. Here on a quiet day you can even hear the distant roar of white water. If we can hear it over three miles away through dead space, how loud must it be at the river itself?
