Natural Beauty...
Cutting through most of the Midwest and southern Midwest, the Grand Canyon was created by erosion of a river through the rock. Now over a mile deep, the Canyon has become one of the most beautiful sights in America.
For your mission, you will have to explain how the canyon was created, what are the major parts of the canyon you would like to see or visitors should see, and what the animal and plant life is. How are they different from everywhere else in the Midwest?
