It was the Coronado Expedition in 1540 that is credited with being the first Europeans to view the Grand Canyon. There is no record that Coronado ever visited the Grand Canyon and that is highly unlikely. His search was for gold and his best evidence led him into Kansas and Oklahoma in search of Cibola. He did send expeditions west through Hopi Country to the Grand Canyon. His expedition into Colorado failed to reach Pikes Peak.
