The Grand Canyon was discovered by who?

Native Americans were the first to find it, but I think the answer your looking for is John Wesley Powell. John Wesley was the first to navigate a boat down the Colorado River through The Canyon, an impressive feat for a man with one arm. But he was far from the first European to see it. Garcia Cardenaz, a soldier under Coronado, saw it in 1540. Two Spanish priests recorded seeing it a couple centuries later. In 1861, American soldier Joseph Ives wrote about The Canyon, "This was the first, and undoubtedly the last expedition to visit this useless place."

How can you travel on a bottom of Grand Canyon?

The "other side" of Grand Canyon, otherwise known as the North Rim, is less visited, and not rightfully so. You can get there by a 21 mile hike across the canyon from the North Rim. You could also get there by car, but that would be 220 miles of driving. In any case, the when it comes to Grand Canyon activities the North Rim is just as good. You can hike, drive, climb there also.
