The Grand Canyon formed primarily through the erosive power of the Colorado River over millions of years. Geological processes, including volcanic activity and tectonic uplift, also played significant roles in shaping the landscape. Erosion from rainwater, wind, and ice further carved the canyon, exposing layers of rock that reveal nearly two billion years of Earth's geological history. This intricate interplay of natural forces created the magnificent and dramatic canyon we see today.
