Roosevelt Point Details

President Theodore Roosevelt helped make Grand Canyon National Park a reality, and this North Rim overlook was named in his honor in 1990. The most prominent feature you see is 8,388-foot Tritle Peak, a naked outcrop of white Kaibab limestone surrounded by pine forest. Looking east into the Kwagunt Valley you'll see Kwagunt Creek, which runs off toward the horizon into an unusually open section of the canyon.
