Grand Canyon

The Grand Canyon is a colorful, steep-sided gorge, carved by the Colorado River, in northern Arizona. The canyon is one of the seven natural wonders of the world and is largely contained in the Grand Canyon National Park — one of the first national parks in the United States.  Here are some beautiful and stunning pictures of the grand canyon.

The canyon, created by the Colorado River cutting a channel over millions of years, is about 277 miles (446 km) long, ranges in width from 4 to 18 miles (6 to 29 kilometers) and attains a depth of more than a mile (1,600 m).

The uplift of the Colorado Plateaus is uneven, resulting in the North Rim of the Grand Canyon being over a thousand feet (about 300 meters) higher than the South Rim. The fact that the Colorado River flows closer to the South Rim is also explained by this asymmetrical uplift.

Grand Canyon Written by Elizabeth on 2005-10-20 07:25:09 I really enjoyed looking at these pictures--I took a helicopter flight over the canyon back in May and was overawed by the magnitude of it all.  I also did the Yosemite trip and think that is also awe-inspiring. I have several good photos of both.
