Where is the Grand Canyon?
  • The Grand Canyon is in Arizona. It is located
    247 miles north of Phoenix, Arizona.

How was the Grand Canyon formed?
  • The Grand Canyon is believed to have been formed
    by erosion, primarily by ice and water, and next
    by wind. Because the Grand Canyon is located in
    the desert, the soil is very dry and hard. It
    cannot absorb water when the rains come. The
    result is usually a flash flood, that can move
    large rocks and boulders.
