secret of the grand canyon?

Been doing some research for what I hope will be an upcoming return trip to the Grand Canyon (provided I get the permits), and happened across a rather cool spot I'd never heard of before. Tuweep is way off the beaten path, out in the barren desert that is the western North Rim and hours from any paved road, but it could be a hidden gem. Attractions include an "extremely rough [and] steep" trail down to the river and an overlook with a 3,000' sheer drop to the river below. Yeah, three thousand feet. Over half a mile straight down a cliff face.

Needless to say, all this puts Tuweep right up near the top of the priority list, even if there's a risk of damaging one's car on the maybe-washed-out dirt roads or getting stranded and dying out there due to the total lack of any facilities (including water). But hey, lack of facilities could imply lack of annoying guard rails at the overlook, too. In a way it's a shame the NPS doesn't try to maintain this area more instead of purposely leaving it undeveloped and remote. The flip side, though, is that it could easily be the best section of the park, due to the absence of crowds, livestock, and human intervention with the landscape. I'm guessing that's a good trade-off that needs to be taken advantage of.

Not bad, eh? And that's not even the 3,000' drop!
