Shockingly, four miles gets you NOWHERE. I imagine if you were good you could actually cross the whole thing. I do wonder how long it would take. You can't see the Colorado river in this shot, but you can see the channel it's running through starting at about 9:00 and running up and to the right. The Colorado Plateau being thrust upwards in the last 600 million years gave the river it's power. The plateau's stopped rising and we've damned the river so the canyon's not going to get much bigger any time soon. Anyway, here's a photo, it's black and white, so it must be art. I'm quite pleased with it: http://www.kylecassidy.com/lj/2010/kyle-cassidy-grand-canyon-1300.jpg Had a really cool Leica-Run-In at some ruins in the middle of the desert, but I'll leave you wondering until I get my travel diary written up.... kc
