The Grand Canyon is a steep-sided gorge carved by the Colorado River. It is largely contained within the Grand Canyon National Park, one of the first national parks in the United States. President Theodore Roosevelt was a major proponent of preservation of the Grand Canyon area, and visited on numerous occasions to hunt and enjoy the scenery. Longstanding scientific consensus suggests that the river has been creating the canyon for six million years. The canyon is 277 miles (446 km) long, ranges in width from 4 to 18 miles (6.4 to 29 km) and attains a depth of more than a mile (1.6 km). Nearly two billion years of the Earth's history have been exposed as the Colorado River and its tributaries cut their channels through layer after layer of rock. We invite you to view our images of the
Grand Canyon.
We are also sure that you'll be captivated by our views of Arizona's
desert landscape,
Anasazi ruins, and the
Hoover Dam, which is on the Arizona-Nevada border.
