How was the Grand Canyon formed?
The Grand Canyon in Arizona in the United States is made of many layers of rock that is 277 miles or 446 kilometers long and 1 mile or 1.6 kilometer deep in some places. This huge gorge was formed by water erosion.
The Grand Canyon was once a wide, level area of high land, called a plateau. Over million of years ago, the fast flowing Colorado River wore away the land to create this natural wonder. The river's current is so strong that it wears away about 500,000 tons of sand and earth every day. Even today, the Colorado continues to wear away the rock little by little.
