Seeing it from the top for the first time is one thing that never leaves your memory, but hiking down a couple thousand feet into the canyon is when you begin to understand just how mind blowing and magnificent the Grand Canyon is. Waterfalls, creeks, cottonwood trees, and a lot of unexpected sights that truly take your breath away. Great video!

@blairduddy9145, but you may know that it didn't start out this way. John Muir and his many friends had to coax and coddle president after president to not let the national parks become a money-making scheme for selfish people, which so many wanted to do. After all, the logging industry would have logged every last one of the Sequoias and Redwoods if they hadn't been stopped, and uranium mining would be going on in the Grand Canyon today if several nearby tribes hadn't fought hard for years to stop those groups once and for all (at least there) with the Baaj Nwaavjo/I’tah Kukveni Grand Canyon National Monument on Aug. 8 of last year. The battle cry seems to be "money first; beauty dead last" for way too many people.

The hardest thing to capture is the sheer scale. Even on video, it just kind of looks like you're on a mountain overlooking other mountains. Its something you truly have to see to fully grasp how otherworldly huge it is. I remember walking from the parking lot and thinking "all i see are these trees" and then it just appears in front of you. My reaction was the same as his: utter disbelief.

I spoke to an artist when my family went to see the canyon and he told me that most of the people he'd observed over the 40 years that he began painting usually stood and gazed at this miracle of nature for less than 30 seconds. That is just sad to me, how little we as a whole hardly take the time to see how truly beautiful the world is.

Seeing pictures and video don't do it justice. When you're there in person you can really feel the scale of it. It's an existential experience. I highly recommend visiting during the winter. There's less traffic and it's so much more beautiful when it's covered in snow. You can camp near the rim for free. Just take the right gear to deal with the cold.

Me too, in the early 60s!! Before there were crowds. And Bryce, Zion, Yosemite, Mammoth Springs and Old Faithful. Every year we’d go somewhere else. Philadelphia. Washington D.C. for the memorials, the Declaration of Independence, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The Amish in Pennsylvania and the Hershey factory. The Great Lakes and Quebec. Ellis Island, where my father came through as a child with his mother in the 1920s to escape the pogroms. In NYC, the Empire State Building and Lincoln Center, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim (I wonder if she could get tickets for them to see “Hamilton” on Broadway, there would be a long wait but worth it to see the show, they’ve already been to Katz’ Deli). Yoel might have fun at New Mexico’s Hot Air Balloon Fiesta held every October, it’s the most photographed event in the world. It’s been suggested by one statesman that if immigrants would be required to visit several landmarks every year, whether natural or patriotic, they’d better understand this culture, and just how vast and varied the country is, just like these two “kids” are doing, and it would make assimilation easier. I’m so glad you two are here. Welcome, Yoel!

Every time I see your videos from the Grand Canyon to my Island of Puerto Rico you make me feel happy, proud, lucky and then I tear up because I recognize how lucky I am to live in the greatest country on this planet. Thank you!

We will definitely do that next time. I really want to go to the Tribe that is down there and we didnt win the lotto tickets. So i'm going to wait till spring to see if we can score them! We will DEFINITELY document that too.

Yoel and Mari, I’ve been to the Grand Canyon 6 times, hiked all the way to the bottom, camped, hiked back out, been on both the north and south rims, etc. and STILL it is not enough time. I’ve told people throughout my life that if they go it can’t be a day trip. You have to give yourself days and days and still you’ll want more. Congratulations on your unforgettable journey to see the grandest canyon in the world!

You guys are making me emotional. I took my parents there a few years ago, and they had the same reaction. We immigrated here (Hawaii to be exact) from the Philippines. I'm glad that they got to see one of the Wonders of the world, because many will never have the opportunity. God bless America, indeed.

Pikes Peck in Colorado Spring along with the Garden of the Gods is a must see. Take the train to the top of Pikes Peck it will blow your mind. That is where the song "America the beautiful " was written about and at. God Bless.
