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.
