Take an exhilarating helicopter flight that whisks you from the Grand Canyon’s South Rim to the North Rim. Through the ECO-Star helicopter’s panoramic windows, see the world's largest ponderosa pines in Kaibab National Forest and the mighty Colorado River.
If you like hiking or walking, then this is the best place for you. You kike in and around the canyon at day. You can also make a backpack overnight below the Rim. If you are not a hiking or wakling fan, you can make a desert view drive. This 23 mile road, leaves Grand Canyon Village, then travels east to Desert View. and the East Entrance Station.

The Grand Canyon is considered one of the natural wonders of the world largely because of its natural features. The exposed geologic strata - layer upon layer from the basement Vishnu schist to the capping Kaibab limestone - rise over a mile above the river, representing one of the most complete records of geological history that can be seen anywhere in the world. Geologic formations such as gneiss and schist found at the bottom of the Canyon date back 1,800 million years. This geologic incline creates a diversity of biotic communities, and five of the seven life zones are present in the park.

The most beloved of the Grand Canyoni s facing some environmental issues. Encroaching development, proposed mining, an influx of yearly visitors and the management of the Colorado River threaten the canyon’s air and water quality.
