As
one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, the Grand Canyon
shows an impressive display of erosion and mother earth's natural
beauty. Stretching for 277 miles, the Grand Canyon ranges
in elevation from 2,400 feet to over 7,000 feet above sea level.
Many attractions and activities are located within the serene canyon.
The breathtaking beauty of the Grand Canyon is enjoyable
for all who visit.
The
Grand Canyon is located entirely in Northern Arizona. It
is up to 1 mile (1.6 km) deep, 4-18 miles (6-29 km) wide, and more
than 200 miles (320 km) long. Plateaus to the north and south rise
1,520 to 2,740 m (5,000 to 9,000 ft) above sea level, partly as
a result of regional uplift, which left the North Rim more than
305m (1,000 ft) higher than the South Rim in places.
