Description
The Colorado Plateau, through which the Grand Canyon cuts. was once a seabed.The plateau was raised through plate tectonic action so that the rims of the grand canyon are now between 7,000 and 8,000 feet above sea level. Through erosion from the Colorado River and other factors, the canyon has been cut as deep as one mile in places. The canyon can be viewed from both the north and south rims. This is a view from Hopi Point on the south rim of the canyon.
