Located in northern
Arizona, the Grand Canyon has been created by the Colorado River over
the course of 17 million years, and the river has continued to erode the
area into what it is today. After being visited by President Theodore
Roosevelt in the early 1900's, he established the Grand Canyon Game
Preserve. He also added the adjoining forest lands, and the area was
designated a US National Monument in 1908. Though land and mining claim
holders fought against the area being classified as a national park for
eleven years, the canyon was placed on the list in 1919 by President
Woodrow Wilson, making it the 17th National Park in the United States. |
