Grand Canyon National Park Astounding! Its magnitude overwhelming. The Grand Canyon, one of the great natural wonders of the world. VHS 60 min ..... $19.95 |
Two thousand square miles, a mile deep, approximately 10 miles wide --- no geological feature on earth evokes a wider spectrum of human emotions than does the Grand Canyon of Arizona. It is impossible not to be profoundly moved when confronting such immensity.
But it is more than a chasm, it is alive with mule deer, mountain lions, coyotes, bighorn sheep, wild turkeys, blue grouse, blue heron, desert tortoises, and the rare kabab squirrel, found only in the Grand Canyon.
Long before the Spanish arrived, the Anasazi (Ancient Ones) lived here. Included is an exclusive segment, never before filmed, of Shaman's Gallery, a significant Anasazi find of rock paintings in the Grand Canyon area, dating between 2000 B.C. and A.D. 1.
This video traces the story of the Grand Canyon from Major John Wesley Powell's early explorations, to today's 4.2 million visitors who come to gaze and ponder this natural phenomenon.
Cinematographers Dale John and Bill Bacon have painstakingly captured the Grand Canyon's magic light show, bursting and burning with ruby and gold light on layers of granite and limestone.
Established in 1908, Theodore Roosevelt proclaimed the Grand Canyon a parkland, and said, "Do nothing to mar its grandeur. Keep it for your children, your children's children, and all who come after you."
