The Grand Canyon truly is a special place. Life abounds within the canyon, in the Colorado River, and even along the rims. Even humans have inhabited this area for at least the past couple thousand years.
The 277-mile-long Grand Canyon is more than a mile deep. One of the top tourist attractions in the U.S., this canyon has been carved by the Colorado River over the last 6 million years. Years of erosion have shaped the canyon’s steep walls, exposing its red-hued rocks.

The Colorado River. I imagine it crosses several states.
The tour highlight was the sunset. It went like a flash and was worth watching.
Here is a glimpse of it. It was a spectacle and special moment to just sit and be one with this transformation.
This is my human blanket. Cuddly and warm.
