Description

A small tree frames this shot looking out over the south rim of the Grand Canyon in Arizona on a bright sunny day in January.

The Grand Canyon is a steep-sided canyon carved by the Colorado River in Arizona, United States. At 446 kilometres long, up to 29 kilometres wide, and a maximum depth of almost 2 kilometres, it's the largest natural landmark (and arguably the most famous) in the US.

Nearly two billion years of Earth's geological history have been exposed as the Colorado River and its tributaries cut their channels through layer after layer of rock while the Colorado Plateau was uplifted. For thousands of years, the area has been continuously inhabited by Native Americans, who built settlements within the canyon and its many caves. The Pueblo people considered the Grand Canyon a holy site, and made pilgrimages to it. The first European known to have viewed the Grand Canyon was García López de Cárdenas from Spain, who arrived in 1540.

I've visited the Grand Canyon a couple of times - once as a kid when I was really too young to appreciate it, and again in January 2019 when I took this picture. Unfortunately, I didn't have a chance to hike down to the bottom - maybe one day!
