The Colorado River gradually eroded the rocks, cutting the deep gorge we see today.
description of how erosion contributed to the formation of the grand canyon

The Grand Canyon was formed by the processes of weathering and erosion.
The primary agent of erosion responsible for the formation of the Grand Canyon is the Colorado River. Over millions of years, the river has carved and deepened the canyon through its powerful force of water flow, which continues to shape the landscape today. Additionally, weathering processes such as frost wedging and chemical weathering have also played a role in the formation of the Grand Canyon.

Yes, the wind and water have caused the grand canyon to become what it is today.
the colorado river was trying to get through the massive rocks which we now call the grand canyon. After years of weathering and erosion the rocks started to erode forming a huge canyon......it is so big so that is why we call it the grand canyon today. hope this helps!! :)
