The answer depends largely on where you are along the Canyon...Grand Canyon Village is on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon at an elevation just short of 7,000 feet. The river is about 2,000 feet above sea level, so the depth of the Canyon from Grand Canyon Village is around 5,000 feet. North Rim, near where Grand Canyon Lodge is, is about 1,000 feet higher than South Rim, making North rim to the bottom of the canyon 6,000 feet down.
You can go right to the bottom of it.
In some locations the Canyon floor is 6,000 feet.
It is 6,000 feet deep at the deepest point.

you can climb it and you can go down it.
The material eroded from the Grand Canyon was deposited on a plain. Over many years, water eroded the plain creating a canyon later known as the Grand Canyon. The water kept weathering down the rocks until it came down to a lower level way below the top of the Grand Canyon. That is why today we have a higher and lower part of the Grand Canyon. Overall, the Grand Canyon started out as a plain and as many years passed water weathered down the rocks.
no, the Grand Canyon was made by the river wearing it down over a ton of years
