Canyonlands National Park, immense amounts of wilderness and rock, is located at the heart of the Colorado Plateau (Canyonlands National Park-Geology). Millions of years have formed specific features to the rock and surrounding wilderness that make it so special.

The Green and Colorado rivers have played a major role in the formation of many of these features. These rivers cut through the park forming two massive canyons.

Our hike will start here, at the north rim of the Grand Canyon. We will go all the way to the bottom of the canyon. But first, a description of this area. The Grand Canyon is one on the most visited and studies sites for geologists on Earth. There are almost forty major sedimentary rock layers exposed in the Grand Canyon. Some of these rocks layers are two hundred million years old or two billion years old. Most of the sediment that makes up the rocks was deposited by oceans and seas, which now, are long gone. We know this because there are many fossils and and other records on large bodies of water in the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon is found in the Colorado Plateau. The Colorado Plateau is lifted almost two miles, or four and a fifth kilometers. It started to lift up seventy-five million years ago. This started a mountain-building period of time called the Laramide orogeny. During this period, the Rocky Mountains were created. The main types of rocks found in the Grand Canyon are limestone, siltstone, shale, and sandstone. Many of the layers are made up of limestone. Some examples of these are the Kaibab Limestone, the Redwall Limestone the Temple Butte Limestone, and the Muav
The Linville Gorge, which is also known as “The Grand Canyon of North Carolina”, is astonishingly beautiful.

Have you heard or visited the Providence Canyon? If so don't you think the Federal Government should make it a national park? The Providence Canyon is located in the southwest of Georgia's Coastal Plains. It was nicknamed Georgia's " Little Grand Canyon" because of the beautiful sandstone formations found in that area. The people that have visited this canyon think that it is a beautiful place to go that you can even camp in it. The Providence Canyon was once a forest, but that all changed in the 1800 when farmers moved in the area and started growing crops.

Salt Spring Island of British Columbia in the nineteenth century, was filled with hatred. For those who were not of White descent they would soon realize that there was a clear separation between the Whites, Blacks, and Aboriginals. This division is crucial to understand as the Whites were the settlers to this area meaning they took over the land and had a great deal of authority. They manipulated the Blacks into following their social and moral regulations, but were incapable of doing the same for the Indians. Consequently, a rivalry occurred since not all Aboriginals could accept being a means to an end for the Whites. In other words, there was a common ideology amongst the Whites that justice must be served to those Indians who decided to disregard the law.
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.

The area of Georgia's Providence Canyon is best known as being a state park with its beautiful colors and soaring size. However, calling it a state park is extremely underrated to me. Since this canyon is such a famous local landmark, it should be a national park instead of a state one. The preservation of it is extremely important if we want it to be around for a long time.
The landscape is stark, but the beauty startling. The expanses seem to welcome, even beg you to explore.

In front of you is one of America’s grand spectacles, Red Rock Canyon.
