Skywalk Resort Grand Canyon
When it's completed, the new Skywalk Resort Grand Canyon West is going to be quite a sight! An old western town, Indian Village and other attractions will put the Hualapai Tribe on the map in years to come.
They're also working on the Skywalk project, scheduled to be completed in 2006. Then we'll see who has the guts to walk out on the glass-bottomed Grand Canyon Sky Bridge.
Stay at the beautiful Hualapai Lodge in Peach Springs and get to know the friendly folks who run the place. They also have a campground, and you'll find gas and food in town. If you want to drive up from Vegas, it's only a 2 hour drive or so to the resort.
The Diamond Creek Restaurant (page down) is an interesting and reasonably priced eatery right in the Hualapai Lodge. If you've always wanted to taste fry bread, this is your chance! The restaurant also offers more familiar American favorites and a soda fountain.
Grand Canyon West already recieves about 250,000 visitors a year, the Hualapai hope to double that number in the next few years. Looks like this will really be a hopping place. Even today, it's still a great alternative to the crowds and noise of Grand Canyon Village.

From their Press Release:
"Attractions available at Grand Canyon West include The Indian Village with authentic dwellings, The Hualapai Market, and The Hualapai Ranch, a western town with horseback and wagon rides. Grand Canyon West is the only location throughout the entire Grand Canyon where visitors can access the river and water recreation activities at the bottom of the canyon via helicopter tours. In addition to boat tours on the river, Hummer tours are available along the rim of the canyon and through private areas that are otherwise inaccessible to the public"
