Exploitant à l'origine du cuivre, Hogan est passé au minerai d'uranium dans les années 1950. Les opérations minières ont pris fin en 1967. Le parc national du Grand Canyon a acquis la propriété en 1987 mais n'a commencé une restauration environnementale majeure qu'en 2008.

Le mémorial Powell à ce point de vue commémore les voyages d'exploration de 1869 et 1871-72 sur le fleuve Colorado par le major John Wesley Powell et les équipages d'expédition. Des panoramas époustouflants peuvent également être appréciés depuis Powell Point.

Pima Point is one of the best places on the rim to see and sometimes hear the river. The splash and grind of Granite Rapids below can be heard echoing up the canyon walls on quiet days. The Greenway Trail continues from here to Hermits Rest, allowing bicyclists and visitors using wheelchairs to share the path with pedestrians.

Hermit's Rest

Mary Colter, one of Grand Canyon's most famous architects, built Hermits Rest in 1914 to look like an old miner's cabin, complete with a giant fireplace and front porch. Today Hermits Rest has a gift shop and small snack bar. Restrooms are available here. The Hermit Trail, winding steeply down into the canyon, begins about 0.5 miles, 0.8 km west of Hermits Rest.
