I advise everyone to take a trip out west! The views are so worth it! In this post, I will be talking about the Grand Canyon. I had always seen photos in history books of the Grand Canyon, and always thought they were overrated and blown out of proportion. I quickly realized I was completely wrong. The Grand Canyon is huge and the views look like a painting! While visiting, I learned that the Grand Canyon is 277 miles long, and 6,000 feet deep. At its widest point, it is 18 miles across. The erosion of the sides of the canyon are caused from the Colorado River. Something that shocked me while visiting, is that people live inside the canyon. A group referred to as the Supai live in the Canyon in a 3,000 deep hole. When vistiting I did not journey through the canyon, but took pictures from above. I am going to attach a couple of photos I took, so you can see how crazy unrealistic it looks. Take an adventure out West, and stop by the Grand Canyon! You will not regret it!
