Legend Of The Grand Canyon

The Linville Gorge, which is also known as “The Grand Canyon of North Carolina”, is astonishingly beautiful. Across the Linville Mountain, there are steep enclosed gorges, breathtaking waterfalls, and large hardwood and pine trees. Because of its largeness and beauty, the Linville Gorge is one of only three officially named wilderness areas in North Carolina. Surprisingly, it’s one out of the only two wilderness gorges in the southern United States. Linville Gorge is located in Burke County, which is near Grandfather Mountain. “The Grand Canyon of North Carolina” is unique, astonishing, and beautiful.

The Grand Canyon, an immense monument of pure beauty, the distinct feature of an American desert, the timeline of the Earth’s history, and the Pormosa for García López de Cárdenas. Percy spoke of a Bostonian man that travelled to the canyon, but was never truly there. He didn’t have the same experience of the Spaniard centuries ago, (Percy 462-463). The Grand Canyon may have changed in form from the erosion and corrosion, yet he didn’t take the same actions of Cárdenas. The man knew about the canyon before even seeing it for the first time, due to previously seen postcards and pictures, he couldn’t have the full feeling of awe at the tremendous depth and vibrant colors in something that is just more than a big, long rock. The author continued on by stating, “At the

The first reason I think the government should make the Providence Canyon a national park is because of students or even collage students could learn more about when seen in person. If the government does not make the Canyon a national park kids will not know a lot about it, because students don't really learn that much when the teacher is just telling the students about, and not actually seeing it. In the passage, Old Farming Methods it says," Providence Canyon, as this area is officially named, is located in southwest Georgia's Coastal Plains region near the Alabama border." Providence Canyon is very educational for younger students and maybe even for older students. That is one reason Providence Canyon should be a national park.

In the providence canyon you can see things you don't see everyday, for example the rare plumleaf azalea. The plumleaf azalea is a flower that is found only in soutwest Georgia and eastern Aladama.

Generally when one thinks of the American west their mind jumps to an image of untouched, unspoiled land, such as the land that is represented by America’s national parks. These tourist destinations in the West showcase the history of our nation’s land in a way that many people assume is and has always been the reality, but although the natural beauty of these lands is represented perhaps the beauty of the cultures that used to inhabit them is not.

We went to southwestern Colorado to learn more about the history of the Anasazi Indians. The amalgamation of tribes which lived thousands of years ago in the American Southwest. We had brought along a minimum amount of cash (approximately $150.00 each). Because we were going to spend only one night in a motel and camp during the rest of the trip. We hiked many miles. Covering closes to twenty miles a day. Our entire club began to get tired and irritated on the third day. But the rewards were worth the effort. Although our trek was long and arduous. I will never forget the sight of the Mesa Verde cliff dwellings in the early morning sunlight on June

There are many national parks and monuments that can be explored on your next adventure. Picturesque views can be found close to home, on the coasts, or on the high plains and mountains of the west.

Produced by John Howe, “Secrets of the Lost Canyon” is centered in the heart of central Utah. By examining past artworks and artworks, archaeologists were able to come up with analytical information concerning the Fremont Indians and their place of origin, Range Creek Canyon. The location holds a total of 295 sites. Amongst the remaining historical artifacts left over by the Fremont Indians, a large amount includes detailed art and symbols drawn onto stone bases. Range Creek Canyon is where they lived, and the location holds a total of 295 sites. The Federal government has purchased the land and are bringing in federal agencies while public management is still being sorted out. Meanwhile, archaeologists, Native Americans, and the location’s managers are conflicted on the situation. The struggle is directed towards the main goals of protecting cultural resources for both the wildlife and public resources. Archaeology is about spectacular discovery that awe the public. If people do not carefully collect information concerning an

Where the Grand Canyon and Lake Mead collide, sits an ecological and historical oasis. The Virgin Mountains stand tall in the background as waterfront views of Mead paint an unforgettable scene. This desert abode served as host for early prehistoric inhabitants, Native Americans, early pioneers, Spanish miners, and presently outdoor enthusiasts. Adventurists have the opportunity to explore over 800 miles of intertwining roads that braid the landscape. Gold Butte has remained one of Mojave 's most precious secrets for decades. This elegant desert hides only an hour and a half drive east of Las Vegas and just south of Mesquite Nevada. Gold Butte 's ecosystem is comprised of diverse organisms, many of which are sacred and protected plants and animals. Joshua trees sit nestled deep in the mineral enriched sand, while the bighorn sheep and tortoise roam the vast desert terrain. The almost 350,000 acres of public land is sculpted with rugged mountains, sandstone outcroppings, yucca forests, slot canyons, and flat top mesas. Is it possible that a place with such a unique array of wildlife and history can exist and remain a secret? Unfortunately, due to many factors over the past 20 years, Gold Butte has been on center stage, but not just for tourism.

I often take for granted the beautiful scenery that we have been blessed with, without wondering where it came from. Though I have not had the opportunity to visit the Grand Canyon, I have always been in awe of the pictures I have seen of it. I must admit that I never stopped to think about how it came to be, but simply assumed it has always been there. The Discovery channel – BBC Documentary “Geological History of The Grand Canyon” has definitely changed my perspective.

This dire struggle that had driven away Dr. Tussell's manners was our climbing out of the Grand Canyon. We, a band of thirteen students and two teachers, had undertaken a treacherous descent into the company of revered, painted walls and beautiful, unseen cultures. In spite of the season, our February trek was accompanied by a torpid heat much like falling asleep on a tanning bed––not quite

Within the layers of rock that form the Grand Canyon, a story is tolled of its own creation, a story that also gives us a great deal of understanding of the geological progress of the world to its present state.
